Ah that's because you're using the trigger time for your record ID value:

You need to use the record ID instead:

Airtable has a good guide you can find here: https://support.airtable.com/docs/use-automations-to-timestamp-status-updates

I cant, this is what I see - https://imghostr.com/e0064e_u96

You're going to need to add a "Find Record" action so that you can tell the automation which record you want to update.  If the record you're trying to update is always the same you can just key it in manually though!  To do that, create a formula field with `record_id()` and use that value in your automation

Hi,

I still get the same message - https://imghostr.com/ed1682_o4a

Could you provide a read only invite link to a duplicated copy of your base with example data please?
