Sort list of Records by the order they were created in

[dodo21]

How can Sort list of Records by the order they were created in both. Would like to know how I can do them both ascending and descending
I also don't have any created time field I can't create that since I'm using the API And as far as I know it does not support creating formulas with the API So is there any other way to do this without using fields

Hmm my only thoughts to do this would be through a Formula or an Automation.

Airtable already has the data you're looking for built into each record. A formula is just pulling that data out. An Automation would create new data on top of your records that you could then use to stipulate created time.

I'd recommend a formula like the "Created Time" field as a solution. You could even use the "Autonumber" field and sort that. However, it seem that isn't a viable option for you.

Automations would be able to do what you're looking for but would take many automation runs. For the automation, you could either copy the time from a created time field, into a regular date field. Or use a script to collect the current time and paste that step into a regular date field.

Here's a script to find the current time:

var dt = new Date();
output.set('nowTimestamp', dt.toISOString());

This will have to run every time a record is created. If you're dealing with a lot of records, you'll ruin out of automation runs pretty quickly.
