 One of my clients, an American production company, was spending a lot of time on invoices to the detriment of their high-value work – the production of corporate videos and ads. Consequently, to help them refocus on their core mission, I created for them a set of automations that streamline their invoice management system: data entry for inbound invoices, document generation and sending for outbound invoices. Those automations helped them reclaim around 10 hours of work per week. You can see what I built in 👉 this Loom

Hi! I am brand new to Airtable (and admittedly, brand new to the tech world in general), so I wanted to share my first project and get some feedback/suggestions. Some background on the project: My dad’s company is built almost entirely out of google drive and he is wanting to start transitioning over to Airtable to automate some processes that are currently being done tediously by his HR team. One of these tasks is keeping employees’ contact info updated regularly. Right now, this is being done by HR reaching out to employees individually to see if their info has changed and then manually updating in google sheets. Current Project: Import current employee info into new Airtable base and set up a form to be emailed quarterly to all employees which will allow them to change any information and update their record automatically once this form has been submitted. Step 1: I imported data straight from google sheets i

Hi everyone! For those of you that were in attendance for Airtable’s New Feature spotlight last week, you may have heard Howie’s announcement that Airtable Academy, our e-learning and certification program, will be universally available and rolled out to EVERYONE this October.  As Howie stated in the webinar: "Our goal is to make this the go-to resource to understand how to build an app—the data modeling concepts, the automation and logic concepts, the interfaces—and to further our mission of empowering a whole new generation of builders to create really useful apps that ultimately transform their operations and create awesome impact for their businesses." If you are a member of one of the 1,000+ Enterprises who’ve registered for the A

This article shows how to generate a PDF based on one of the DynamicDocs JSON to PDF templates from Airtable. PDF generation is done by setting up a script which can be prompted with a button. The script creates a JSON with underlying data from Airtable and uses DynamicDocs API to generate the PDF. The PDF is then downloaded and put into the Airtable attachment field. What is DynamicDocs API?DynamicDocs API is JSON to PDF API based on LaTeX that allows users to generate dynamic PDF documents i

Hey all! Ryan here, I created a tool that lets you customize and embed Airtable data on any website.I've implemented the feedback I got from here (Thanks again!) and am excited to share our new Calendar template.This template is a perfect way to showcase upcoming events on your website all whilst managing them in Airtable.The Template comes with a bunch of customisation options:The Calendar comes with 4 views (Day, Week, Month, Agenda)You can toggle which views you want to have on your template Choose a Default Calendar view for the Calendar.This is the view that the template starts with when the template first loads on your website. You can combine this with toggling off views you don't want to have only 1 view on the Calendar. Popup Event ModalsW

How to group rows by date so that groups are formed by day, without taking into account time. To get a group of October 4 with 2 rows and October 5 with 2 rows. I understand that the question is in the time display, but if you make a separate column with the formula DATETIME_FORMAT({Posting Time}, 'DD MM YY') and then group by it, then the program takes the date for text and sorts without taking into account the month, only by day.

Have trouble with your age-old ERP that's visually horrible and takes you so much time every week? Well, we've got just what you need. We're building a streamlined and visually appealing ERP on Airtable and Make for a client, allowing them to leave soon the horrible Dolibarr. It's estimated that our client will thus save 4 to 10 hours of tedious repetitive tasks a week. Plus, they already enjoy the polished look of this new tool. Thank you, @airtable44 team, for giving us the means to have our clients go from 'Aaargh' to 'Wooow' ! Here's what the first step of this massive project, namely integrating Dolibarr and Airtable, looks like:👉https://bit.ly/demo-erp-airtable 👈

I've gotten a lot of help from the community, and I'd like to offer something in return.  I was able to author a script that autonumbers a counter field for my detail records based on the group field of the parent record.  This is my first working script and I'm sure it has issues, so use carefully.  I'm sure better versions of this exist on marketplace or someplace, but I couldn't find.  I've submitted it to the marketplace, not sure if it's worthy of them listing it though.  It was a painful learning process to get working, but it does do what I need now. 🙂PS, I know airtable doesn't have a concept of "secondary key" (as in subject), but I think people like me that come from a SQL background might search on thatThe high level of this use case is I have a board meeting each month (Meeting is primary key of parent record). People can submit new agenda items for that meeting, and as they do, the "Agenda Item" counter will number them 1,2

Airtable’s Script Editor is great, but one flaw that’s bothered me for a long time is how much space the side panels take up, especially on small screens. There’s no way to collapse them, and no way to resize them. Soooo, I spent a few hours writing a userscript with some absolutely insane CSS rules to fix this. Now, the side panels in the Script Editor are collapsed by default, and can be shown by hovering over the handlbars to the right and left. The script is designed to work in both the Scripting Extension, and in the Automations editor. I haven’t released the script publicly yet, as it’s currently written using some experimental CSS properties which allow the CSS rules to be less complex. However, I already figured out a version of the code previously that doesn’t use these experimental properties and is compatible with current browsers, so it would just take a little time to fix up the code before I can share it. If you’re

In order to assist a community member in accessing expiring URLs for their attachments, I've developed a new extension! Now, you can effortlessly retrieve the URLs of your attachments with just a click.Just a heads up, the Airtable makes the URLs expire for security reasons. As a result, the provided URL will only remain active for ~2 hours.

Work with your Airtable database via Siri. A bit advanced to understand maybe, but these are meant to act like “functions” that can be used separately like building blocks for your own shortcuts. It is intended to be very flexible and simple to make your own individual shortcuts from these blocks. After setting these main functions up, your custom-made shortcut can be something as simple as this: Example Using the Building block functions Main Functions: Airtable Vars - Holds your Api Key, name, and airtable app code.

Hi Community!We have the employee information on our Airtable.Also, we have some forms that they can submit, for example leave requests or overtime requests.It would be nice that they can see their own records they submitted in the past but it would be anooying to create one interface for each employee.Using the thrid party like Stacker might be the best option but we are wondering if there is any best way that they can see their responses for just their own somehow.We have different bases for Emplyee information and Leave request form/record but they are connected. Thank you,
