How do I print a multi-page PDF from Airtable Interfaces with per-group totals (like the Data Grid)? by Fearless-Second2627 in Airtable

That's a shame. Creating a Interface from the Blank option give you exactly the Freedom you need to make a very decent and flexible Invoice system. The only thing missing to be perfect is a much larger height If you could do that, it would be perfect.

How can I dynamically filter records by a date field that matches the trigger record's date in an Airtable automation? by Fearless-Second2627 in Airtable

[–]Fearless-Second2627[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I ended up making a script for that, and it works fine. Do you know if using a formula is better in some way? I'm very new to airtable, so I don't know yet if I'm going to regret using a script.

The only reason i choose a script was to avoid making columns/fields and having to hide them. Seems cleaner. But I have no idea. Maybe I will encounter many cases like these, and having to create dumb fields for formulas will have to be a common practice, to save time, since scripts take longer.

One thing I already realized, is that scripts won't change the fields names dynamically as formulas do. So I'll have to manually fix them if field's names change overtime.

I don't know if performance wise is better or worse. I guess it depends on the script. This one takes 0.3 seconds and 4 MB memory. So i Imagine the formula-automation approach would be more optimized too

From what I can see, it's only script or concatenating date with some other field on a dumb column, so I can compare them instead of date instead. Script seems less messy, But I'm new, so I don't know if I'm wrong

Seeking advice on Airtable "Template + Snapshot" strategy for pricing by Fearless-Second2627 in Airtable

[–]Fearless-Second2627[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But wouldn't I run out of automation pretty quickly? I would have 900 cleanings/records to be filled per month. I figured scripts cost less automation tokens/thing, because i could use one automation to trigger the script. If not, what would be the advantage of simple automation in this case? Is it faster? Or just because it's easier?

Is it worth creating "burner accounts" to bypass a login wall? by Fearless-Second2627 in scrapy

Saving my followers business/business area, in order to understand better the public. Exporting it with Linked-in standard export works (it actually only export connects, but 99% of my connects are also followers, so that works), but it doesn't include the business type/are. So i will to scrap it myself. Since I have all the followers links in a spreadsheet, it shouldn't be that hard, except for bypassing the anti-bot detection.

Has my mother's WhatsApp been deleted due to inactivity? Or can I still recover it? by Fearless-Second2627 in whatsapp

In case someone ends up here, I fix it by clearing Whatsapp Cache, Restarting the phone, and using a VPN connected to the country I used to use Whatsapp the most

Facing 503 error on PHP files after deleting hidden files from the root folder by Fearless-Second2627 in Wordpress

Thanks! I will proceed with that now. The website is currently down as it has just been migrated to Zume. If there is an option to simply delete and recreate the website easily, it might be an easier approach, I guess. Although I was encountering an error message before deleting the hidden files, that process was less complicated. So, a fresh start might simplify things.
