Scripting - filter by "Link to another record" fie...

[Mike_Gendel]

An entry in a text or number field in a base needs to be able to take the user to the linked page on an external site. Is this possible?

[Karlstens]

I often link records to SharePoint data and SharePoint lists back to Airtable without any trouble. Have you tried or encountered an issue?

[Mike_Gendel]

Thanks for the response Karlstens. Are you using an extension to achieve this? I cannot find a way to say select a record in a field and associate an external URL to this.

[Karlstens]

No extension as such, typically I manage hyperlink creation within my records using formula fields, that reference other text fields within the record, the final result being a dynamic link that changes depending on that record.

Example of the ENCODE_URL_COMPONENT() formula below.
