What is the proposed idea/solution? Export automation logs to solution like a dedicated Airtable, Sheets or DataStudio (when an official connector?) How does is solve the user problems? Searching inside logs for troubleshooting or monitoring is just a nightmare and one execution by one How was this validated? Idea is to export raw data to data analytics tools (simpler like sheet, robust like DataStudio (google looker studio) or build it inside Airtable as an option to activate 'Create a dedicated automation log table' Who is the target audience? Any user of airtable that need to follow-up /monitor automation execution.

We use RabbitMQ a lot to take action when certain record events happen. For example, when users are created in a table, this sends a message which triggers account creation in other systems. At the moment, we use scripting automations to send POST requests to our RabbitMQ HTTP API. This is cumbersome, and there's no way to listen to events without creating webhooks. We would love first-class AMQP integration in Airtable. This would look like: In automations, the ability to send an AMQP message with a routing key and payload Ability to listen to an AMQP topic and take action

I’d really love the ability to copy and paste text and emojis (externally) into an Airtable form. I currently copy and paste a lot of Slack messaging into Airtable forms and the formatting doesn’t carry through. By what I’ve researched, it appears Slack uses Markdown so that’s why it may not translate?? Wondering if there’s a workaround or if that can also be incorporated into Airtable’s functionality (receive HTML or Markup info and retain formatting)

I had an idea for an airtable integration that I think would be super useful. I have an airtable with multiple different tables and for each of those I have a view that pulls up the specific records that require action from myself or other team members.
I’d love to see a dashboard with various metrics that are each red/yellow/green depending on whether they need attention or not.
[Was going to attach a screenshot of a concept but discourse won’t let me]
I know that Airtable has a block for metrics which is kind of okay but doesn’t quite work the way I need it to. The other thing that would be super useful is to be able to click on the metric and be taken directly into that view.
Thoughts?

The problem with zapier is that it will always zap a record only once (even if it reappears in the same view). Therefore, updating an external record (say a job post) using zapier is currently not possible (without a complicated workaround*) because Airtable does not give you the option to feed zapier a modification time stamp instead of the record ID. Would it be possible to update your zapier integration so that by default zapier sorts the records by the record ID but that you’re able to choose another field to sort by instead (like a modification timestamp)? Many thanks, Gaudenz The workaround I am currently using is that after zapping a record, a new, identical record in Airtable is created (using zapier) and the old one marked for deletion. Thus with a new record ID, I am able to update it - but it’s cumbersome and does not work in all use cases.

This plugin works great, but why isn’t there a feature to randomize the content? I’ve created a base with thumbnail images, and using the plugin, the images populate the elements always in the same order. Randomizing seems like a very basic, but very helpful feature.

Hey everyone. Im trying to find an easy way to send all my tables to firebase or the real time database. I’d like to use the data from the tables to feed information into several different web apps.

I’d like the ability to create and save multiple drafts within the SendGrid block. We use it to send a handful of basically “evergreen” transactional emails. At the moment, we create drafts in a shared Google doc that include {field data} to personalize the messages. This isn’t too cumbersome, but occasionally we make improvements to the draft within SendGrid after reviewing the Preview – in these cases, if we don’t then remember to update the draft in the Google doc atferwards, we lose all our work. And that’s a bummer. thank you

I’d love to see integration with automate.io. It offers a lot more features and better pricing compared to Zapier for what I need to do.
