Hi,

We have an Airtable form where people upload different attachments (photographs, PDF and Word), but some of them cannot import more than 50 attachments at a time.

Is there a way for people to import more than 50 attachments at a time in an Airtable form?

Thank you for your help!

Hi Bianca

 

I would do this through an google drive integration.  You can create a new table that is a google drive sync.  All files uploaded to google drive would be synced into your base and can be attached to your form response.  While not an exact match to your question, it may help.

Hi @Bianca_Cadieux!

The solution to your problem is to use Fillout's advanced forms for Airtable, which allows you to upload as many attachments as you want simultaneously.

Fillout is 100% free, and it lets you upload an unlimited amount of attachments at the same time! Just drag-and-drop as many attachments as you’d like into the form!

You can even continue to go back and upload more attachments, if you missed a few attachments the first time around.

Take a look at the screenshot below to see how you would set this up in Fillout. You do this by specifying the MAXIMUM NUMBER OF ATTACHMENTS that you want someone to upload at once.

Fillout offers so much more than that, too. Fillout offers hundreds of features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer, including the ability to update Airtable records from a form, the ability to display Airtable lookup fields & Airtable rollup fields & Airtable attachments & formulas on forms, the ability to perform math or other live calculations on your forms, the ability to accept payments on forms, the ability to have multi-page forms with conditional paths, the ability to create new linked records on a form, visually displaying as many fields as you want to see in a linked record selection list (including attachment fields), limiting the number of linked records that can be chosen, uploading an unlimited amount of attachments at the same time, and much more. 

Hope this helps! If your company has a budget for your project and you’d like to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

Hey there,

Our miniExtensions form offers this functionality as well! You can upload as many attachments as you like by simply dragging and dropping your files in an attachment field or selecting them from a file explorer/finder window. You can also set a maximum number of files, a maximum attachment size or restrict your field to only certain types of attachments (e.g. documents or images). By the way, you can also use your attachment field to collect a hand signature from your users that then gets stored as an image in Airtable!

That's just a few examples of our form's features. You can try them all out by creating a free account! 🙂
