We have a couple of columns populated with emails and names, the rest of the AirTable base will be empty (I've attached a screenshot). What we'd need is to trigger the workflow in Make based on specific time trigger automation and I just don't know how to tell the workflow to start as the specific trigger time automation in AirTable doesn't allow me to use the recordID field. Would you be able to direct me to a solution if there's any or tell me how you'd accomplish that feat?

Hi. I've added a field with a checkbox, and ticked all the fields. The automation was on and when the time of the automation came, only one record got triggered.
I'm not sure if I'm tiggering the automation the way you would like me to do.

Hi again. I think it might be something to do with Make. Once I set up Make webhook to run every minute, the agreements were generated every minute so maybe this is the approach I'd have to use. 

People from Make suggest to use "Watch Records" module but I don't seem to be able to narrow down what I'm doing wrong there too.

Ah, yeah, from your screenshot 'step5', your trigger is still "At scheduled time" and is errored out, which means you aren't triggering the automation?  Could you check the automation history to see if the automation's actually ran before?  And if it has, check the 'Find record' action's results and see whether the repeating group fired for each of the results

It sounds like you've got it working though, and if that's the case you could just leave it heh

Hi Adam. I've checked the history and the automation appears to have run for each record.  And the approach with one minute would not be the cleaniest but it actually did they job.

I was actually do it with the "Watch Record" module in Make once I realise at what step I was going wrong about the workflow. Your approach helped me to learn some more so I really appreciate the time you took to walk me through your approach and I might use in the future in another project!
