#4 is genius - just started with airtable and would not have thought of this but makes sooo much sense to keep an automation log - thank you!!!

[@maryvandenberge]

What a great video- I am new to Airtable and would like to use it to keep track of my craft supplies inventory. Do you have any videos relating to inventory? Need to learn more on the link function. Thank you for the information.

[@SusanMCoffeeTime]

Thank you! I'm new to Airtable and appreciate your clear explanations and overview.

[@GarethPronovost]

[@ToniTannerScott]

I'm not new, but the updates are throwing me for a loop!

[@GarethPronovost]

Same here, it looks like a new software in many respects

[@CHARLESSIMONMILUMBE]

Great content man!!!

[@GarethPronovost]

Thanks so much!

[@fentian]

Thanks for this wonderful info, perfectly pitched for airtable newbies like me. Now I'm off to the playlist. ps. the swirly background around the edges is a bit distracting.

[@GarethPronovost]

Glad it was helpful & thanks for the feedback!

So for some reason while following along I never could see the add element selector when in the in the record review interface layout....

[@GarethPronovost]

Add Element is only available in some of the Page types - if you're building from scratch I recommend using the "Start with Blank" option for interface page building!

[@SpiritDonkey]

Thank you!

[@GarethPronovost]

Hope it helped!

[@RussFornea-f9c]

Did Airtable make any changes to the interfaces since the creation of this video? While following along when I got to the interfaces section and selected the record review layout I was never able to get an add element button to show up. Also there is no add element option button when selecting any of the layout options other than the blank one....

[@GarethPronovost]

They are making constant updates to interfaces these days. The "add element" option is available if you opt to build from scratch when starting the interface page

Hi , I have learnt alot from your videos but i got stuck with something like I am creating an airtable automation for recurring task for weekly, daily, monthly, 3 times per week and twice a month for this as explained in the video next to perform date i used this formula DATEADD({Due Date},SWITCH(Frequency,'DAILY',1,'WEEKLY',7,'MONTHLY',30,'TWICE A MONTH',15,'3 TIMES PER WEEK',3),'days') It works perfectly well for daily, weekly and monthly, twice a month but it doesn't work for 3 times per week because i want days like(Monday, thursday and sunday) can you please help me with the formula

[@GarethPronovost]

Hi! This is hard to troubleshoot in chat, but we have hourly consultants available on our website who can help you on a screenshare!

Good video. The frame around your screen with moving elements is distracting. If you remove it your screen will display larger. The text in Airtable will be easier to see, and there won’t be distractions.

[@GarethPronovost]

thanks for the feedback

[@kennethwdc]

@@GarethPronovost I'm watching your videos on a laptop so my screen is small to begin with. I had to tape cardboard to the sides and bottom of the screen in order to avoid having shapes moving in the periphery for the 20 or so minutes it takes to watch a video. There would be less obtrusive ways to put the gap logo on the video. Looking forward to more of your videos.

[@thomashartmann5037]

@@kennethwdcFirstly I don’t agree with you on the distraction, but if so why don’t you just zoom in on your browser window enough to only see the actual presentation window.

[@kennethwdc]

@@thomashartmann5037 Good idea. I was viewing in full screen where I couldn't zoom, but once I exited full screen your idea solves the problem.

How safe is your data?

[@GarethPronovost]

That's a question I'd direct to Airtable themselves ✅
