Hello there, 

I'm a recent customer of Airtable, i really love this solution but i have some issues with scripting automation. 

When i run my code on scripting app i don't have any problem but when i try to create an automation like a button on click i receive this error message -> Error: Exceeded quota of 30 table queries per script invocation. 

I checked the forum but i don't find the real solution of this issue. Could we help me ? Thx a lot 

My code :

 

// Clean all table 
let table = base.getTable("fetch_articles");
let query = await table.selectRecordsAsync();

let recordsToDelete = query.records;
let batchedRecords = [];

while (recordsToDelete.length > 0) {
  let batch = recordsToDelete.slice(0, 50);
  batchedRecords.push(batch);
  recordsToDelete = recordsToDelete.slice(50);
}

for (let i = 0; i < batchedRecords.length; i++) {
  await table.deleteRecordsAsync(batchedRecords[i]);
}

// Run code
function btoa(token) {
  var Base64={_keyStr:"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/=",encode:function(e){var t="";var n,r,i,s,o,u,a;var f=0;e=Base64._utf8_encode(e);while(f<e.length){n=e.charCodeAt(f++);r=e.charCodeAt(f++);i=e.charCodeAt(f++);s=n>>2;o=(n&3)<<4|r>>4;u=(r&15)<<2|i>>6;a=i&63;if(isNaN(r)){u=a=64}else if(isNaN(i)){a=64}t=t+this._keyStr.charAt(s)+this._keyStr.charAt(o)+this._keyStr.charAt(u)+this._keyStr.charAt(a)}return t},decode:function(e){var t="";var n,r,i;var s,o,u,a;var f=0;e=e.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9\+\/\=]/g,"");while(f<e.length){s=this._keyStr.indexOf(e.charAt(f++));o=this._keyStr.indexOf(e.charAt(f++));u=this._keyStr.indexOf(e.charAt(f++));a=this._keyStr.indexOf(e.charAt(f++));n=s<<2|o>>4;r=(o&15)<<4|u>>2;i=(u&3)<<6|a;t=t+String.fromCharCode(n);if(u!=64){t=t+String.fromCharCode(r)}if(a!=64){t=t+String.fromCharCode(i)}}t=Base64._utf8_decode(t);return t},_utf8_encode:function(e){e=e.replace(/\r\n/g,"\n");var t="";for(var n=0;n<e.length;n++){var r=e.charCodeAt(n);if(r<128){t+=String.fromCharCode(r)}else if(r>127&&r<2048){t+=String.fromCharCode(r>>6|192);t+=String.fromCharCode(r&63|128)}else{t+=String.fromCharCode(r>>12|224);t+=String.fromCharCode(r>>6&63|128);t+=String.fromCharCode(r&63|128)}}return t},_utf8_decode:function(e){var t="";var n=0;var r=c1=c2=0;while(n<e.length){r=e.charCodeAt(n);if(r<128){t+=String.fromCharCode(r);n++}else if(r>191&&r<224){c2=e.charCodeAt(n+1);t+=String.fromCharCode((r&31)<<6|c2&63);n+=2}else{c2=e.charCodeAt(n+1);c3=e.charCodeAt(n+2);t+=String.fromCharCode((r&15)<<12|(c2&63)<<6|c3&63);n+=3}}return t}}

Automation scripts can only perform up to 30 selectRecord queries, as the error message is telling you. 

It looks like your script is performing 5 queries for each record that you want to create, in addition to two other queries. That means you won't be able to create more than 5 records.

Can you provide more background on how you got this script and your level of scripting ability? One suggestion is to use a hash table for looking up data.

The script includes some unusual and inconsistent ways of writing things. Although there are many different ways to do things in code, this script does not look like it was written by a single human.

I also suggest breaking this script up into two scripts, each running in its own action..

Since you are trying to bring in records via a custom API, you might be better served by using a tool like DataFetcher or Make’s HTTP module.

Hello @kuovonne, thx for your faster reply. 
I'm not very good in javascript, this code was build thanks to several informations find in the web. 

I gonna try  to breaking this script up like you said.
