Hey all,



I’d love your feedback on a tool we’re working on, called Scripts.



What is it? An extension that embeds an onsite code editor into your bases.



Why would I need that? If you’ve ever used Google Scripts or VBA for automating spreadsheets, this is the same for Airtable.



It makes it easy to build custom alerts, automations, workflows, reports, and integrations for your bases, using short Python scripts. The extension handles API calls behind the scenes (even as the Airtable API is quite limiting), OAuth with other apps you’re integrating with, hosting, and more.



Who is it for? It’s designed for power users with a bit of Python experience, automation geeks, or API developers.



What’s the ask? Take the extension for a spin, reply back with your feedback, and don’t share too broadly just yet… we haven’t yet launched!



Paul



PS - here are some cool use-cases



Build an Google Sheets Export/Import integration in 60 seconds





Setup mail merge in Airtable



Can you try refreshing?


I guess that someone edited the site config to remove dates from blog entries is something of tacit proof the site and product aren’t dead. :winking_face: Not sure I’d build it into a client solution, yet, but maybe I’ll play around with it some on my own time.

@Paul_K, I’m having the same problem as @Oliver_Robson from a few months back. Did y’all ever find a solution? It looks like it may have somewhat spontaneously resolved but…I’d like to know if there’s something more I can do than just wait around and hope it starts working.



I’ve been able to successfully use Blockspring with Asana, so I know the problem isn’t my browser, it’s Airtable.

I’m having the same issue. Any other solutions for scripting that anyone knows about?

Totally missed this message. I took a look again today and all seems to work well. But it might’ve been recent pushes between a few weeks ago and now. Can you try again?


@Oliver_Robson What did you do to resolve this issue? The extension is still not working for me. I am not being directed to the script editor.



Thanks!

I have the same issue. I click the green leaf, I give the OK to the dialog window, but the script editor won’t pop up.

Can you confirm this?
