Using Airtable Automations to clear a field

[Gabi_Messina]

Super excited for AT to have the automations feature but I have run into a roadblock. I have an automation that I want to run and as part of it, I want to clear any data that may exist in a field. In Zapier you can do this with three spaces. Is there a way to do this in Automations?

Wow, I’m not sure about this, but I bet someone else will have the answer.

As a workaround, you could probably create a new, hidden field that you will always keep empty — and then set the other field to the value of the empty field.
