I have a typical CRM Airtable base that has three tables: Name, Company and Project. Records in the tables are all linked together. Now I want to create another base that uses (syncs) information from two of the tables: Name and Company. It's easy enough to create a new Base and sync the two tables...but when I do, the linking between the two tables goes away. In other words, in the new Base I lose the knowledge that John Doe works for XYZ company. It shows us as text, of course, the records are not linked. Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks to everyone who joined the first EDUser Group webinar yesterday! 🙌 It was clear that managing permissions can be a headache for folks - particularly in trying to understand the cascading impacts of what people may have access to. @SUpton_VU generously offered to share a visual they use at Villanova to help keep it all straight. Sandy, thank you for sharing! Please feel free to offer any more insight and/or commentary as to how you have it deployed with your group! Happy Building! 🔨

🎬 Airtable EDUser Group Event Recording Hey everyone! Thanks so much to everyone who joined our Inaugural EDUser Group meeting! We had ~40 EDU professionals in attendance, and we’re blown away by the conversations and excitement that we saw. We’re feeling inspired for future meetings, and can’t wait to continue building this user group together on the Airtable Community. Here’s what we covered: 🌟 Airtable in Education - Operational Efficiencies Use Cases Faculty Pay Process - Airtable is used to streamline and create a centralized process, reducing inefficiencies and enhancing collaboration across HR and Payroll teams. (this was my use case!) Institutional Space & Capital Project Management System - Replaced outdated processes (e.g., post-it notes) and leveraging Airtable’s automations and interfaces for record keeping, transparency and decision making across academic departments. (@Blessing_Nuga's use case) Unifying Data and Event Management - Developed a centralized hub interconnecting member records, event coordination, and reporting structures. Automation and dashboards enable real-time updates, empowering stakeholders with accurate data for informed decisions and growth. (@pwin25 Paris Winfrey's use case) ❓Q&A Session - we received some great feedback from the attendees, and here’s what we’re considering for future meeting topics: Base sharing functions and more interactive access to Airtable templates Deep Dive into Permission Management (Join the discussion in this community post!) Automation Showcase - Highlight more advanced automations that saves time Navigating institutional IT and Integration with IT Systems Collaborative Brainstorming - Open forum for members to seek helps and collectively brainstorm with Airtable power users 📢 Call to Action We want to hear from you! Do you have a unique use case you’d like to share, or want to let us know what you’d like to see in our upcoming meetings? Reply to this thread with your suggestions and continue the conversation in the community forum. We hope to see you at the next event!
