Airtable

The first table in the airtable (picture below) explains all the other tables

A good way of starting with Airtable/databases is to think

  • These are just a bunch of spreadsheets or individual โ€˜data setsโ€™; Iโ€™ll treat them as separate for now

  • Nice, itโ€™s a bit easier to quickly add entries if I choose single or multi-select field types , or checkboxes

  • Hey look, if I make this a โ€œLinkโ€ field type can easily add rows from sheet B into sheet A, thatโ€™s cool!

  • I can also โ€˜create new rows in B while adding them to Aโ€™

  • Cool, sheet B now has a column indicating where it has been entered into sheet A

  • Hmm, sheet A has stuff on it that is not relevant for our partner; let me create a simpler โ€˜viewโ€™ of sheet A filtering out rows hiding columns that are not relevant to our partner
