Check how you set up the update action. It sounds like you are pulling the record ID from the "Find Records" action instead of from the current value in the repeating group.

Thank you so much! My automation is working perfectly now. I guess I was confused by all the Record ID options. I've made the correct choice now. And that is after clicking the + to the right of Record ID in Update Record configuration, two boxes appear. In the left most box under Use Data From... -> Repeating Group Sources -> Current Item from List of Records. In the adjacent box on the right Choose Data -> Insert value from field -> Airtable Record ID. Makes complete sense now. Thanks!

I have this same issue, but your solution didn't fix it.
I have a view that is set to show expired items. I have an automation set to find the records in that view, and then within a repeat for each loop, I want to update the records to remove the data from a couple of fields.
The find records step finds three records successfully. The repeat for loop shows those three records as the input list. The update record step consistently updates only the first record. In the test automation section, I'm getting the "received invalid inputs" error when running the update records step. It's pointing at the correct table and the record ID is set to Current Item > Airtable Record ID (in the Insert Value from Field section). Not sure what else to try, but it's consistently finding the records and then only updating the first one. Is this a problem with the repeat of each configuration or the update records step?

I found a workaround that simplified things. I set the trigger to when a record matches conditions and put the update record logic in the actions section. That did what I needed with a lot less work. 🙂

Oh my god i've been trying to fix my automation for about 3 hours, this was it. Thank you - I was about to give up.
