Script triggering webhook and recordID

[akshay_o_p]

is there any way to access a single record via airtable API without using recordID?
tried SEARCH() filterbyformula but not working since it is a number field.

need to access records based on the SerialNumber.

thanks in advance

Welcome to the Airtable community!

When using filterByFormula you need a valid formula. SEARCH expects a text string, not a number. Test your formula in a formula field in the Airtable user interface before putting it in filterByFormula. You should be able to use a simple filter like {SerialNumber}=5 to get the record where the SerialNumber is 5.
