Hi,

I am working with a list of contacts in my main spreadsheet. I am trying to update a specific information of many contacts simoutaneously. So I created a second table, where I want to input the name of the person, and this information (books received). I want to be able to add a list of people and books on this second table and add these books to the already received books on the main table.

I was able to do part of the way, but I am having a problem with the Record ID after the Find record step. For some reason I only see the option of 'List of Airtable Record ID', which I think is why it is not working. 

It seems like a simple automation, but I can't go around it. Any suggestions?

Thank you!

Hmm could you provide some screenshots of your table setup?  I tried to imagine what you were trying to do so I could help figure out the automation and came up with the following, but I'm not sure if it's right:
