Hello 
I need to build a form where users create a 'Deals' table record. 
The description of the form should contain  dates that come from a  record 
in another table: 'Cohort'. 
It seems that Fillout pre-fetch is exactly what I need, but it is only available for 79$/mo 
which seems too much for this form only (and mini-extensions likewise). 
Is there any another solution? Does scripting have anything to do with Forms? 
Many Thanks

You don't need to pay to get this feature in Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable.

You can get this feature for 100% free.

If you use a linked record field in Fillout's forms to link to another table, then you can bring in any fields that you want from that other table and display them on the Fillout form.

You do that by dragging in a "paragraph" or a "banner" element or any other display text field, then typing the @ symbol, and drilling down through the linked record field to display the field that you want.

Hope this helps! If 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

Plumsail Forms for Airtable can do that. They've got a free plan for up to 100 submissions a month, and paid plans start at $15/month. Just in case you ever need extra functionality one day 😊
