I have the following script to create records in a table.
Event Name is a Single Select field. But I get an error "Error: Field "...." cannot accept the provided value."
await passTable.createRecordAsync({
"Event Name": event,
"Event Date/Time": date,
"Notes": notes,
});
}
"Event Name": [{name: event.toString()}]
and
"Event Name": [{name: event)}]
but neither of them work. Any suggestions?
Single select fields expect `{name: [OPTION VALUE]}`, so try
"Event Name": {name: event.toString()}or
"Event Name": {name: event}
Single select fields expect `{name: [OPTION VALUE]}`, so try

"Event Name": {name: event}Hi,
I remember my beginner steps in Airtable JS, such explanation would be critical for me 🙂
Your answer is correct in final part, but I would better say
Single-select refuses to get {name: [OPTION VALUE]}
because it's array.
Single-select expects a single object with Name
{name: OPTION_VALUE}
The `{name: [OPTION VALUE]}`, Array of objects is the format for Multiselect, Linked field, Lookup (computed, can't write to it), multi-User. maybe something else.
I would suggest to take a look in this place for cell value problems with Create/Update fields
maybe it's difficult to understand the exact format, but it usually has good examples.
Another thing to check, chatGPT sometimes reply with a brilliant answer. And sometimes it's a nonsense formatted like brilliant answer. To fix a small part of script is easier that write new from scratch.
anyway, worth a try.
Single select fields expect `{name: [OPTION VALUE]}`, so try
"Event Name": {name: event.toString()}or
"Event Name": {name: event}Ah! I see what I did wrong there🙊 Thanks!
