Welcome to the Community Introduce Yourself Here!
It is possible for our community to be such a vibrant and productive place thanks to all of the members who come to contribute questions, share their expertise, and show off their achievements. In a fast moving and technical community it can be tough to know where to get started connecting with other community members. A great place to break the ice is right here by introducing yourself and telling us a bit about you. Not everyone likes an open ended bio so we do have a few suggestions if you aren't sure what to say. 1. What is one of the biggest challenges you tackled/or hope to tackle in your current job? (Don't worry you don't have to include Quick Base in this one) 2. If you could snap your fingers and suddenly have any skill mastered today what would it be? 3. Do you have a Quick Base feature you feel you have mastered or one you are really curious to learn? I'll get us started by introducing myself. I am Evan the community manager here at Quick Base. I got started working at Quick Base in 2016 as a member of our Care team and then transitioned into working on our Quick Base Community. This has given me the opportunity to interact with a huge range of Quick Base problem-solvers both here in the community and at places like Empower. 1. The biggest challenge I have tackled recently have been working on the update for this community over the last 6 months. It has been a great learning experience in project management. 2. If I could snap my fingers right now and suddenly have a skill mastered I would have to go with carpentry. I have always been jealous watching people who just know how to build things from scratch like that. 3. I am really interested to build out my skills more when it comes to APIs and integrations. Especially as we add Cloudpipes to our Quick Base offerings. ------------------------------ Evan Martinez Community Manager ------------------------------
How to Use the Bucket Channel to Schedule an Archive to Box
3 MIN READ How to Use the Bucket Channel to Schedule an Archive to Box You may be wondering what the Bucket Channel is now that you've started to utilize our newest feature, Pipelines. The Bucket channel is a built in channel that allows you to createtemporary storage tables, or objects, in the pipeline and then access that data which will be available for all your future logics. In this tutorial we will utilize this method to create a temporary CSV table to archive data from Quickbase to Box on a monthly schedule. Before we start the tutorial you will first want to access pipelines and connect to the Box Channel. For step by step information on connecting to Box, click here. Now that you have connected to the Box Channel we can start creating our Pipeline! Step A: Define Your Table Using the Bucket Channel 1. Locate the Bucket Channel > Pipelines Rows > Define Table. Drag this Action to the first step of your Pipeline. 2. Determine your table Header Separator. In this example, I'm using Comma. 3. Define your header rows. NOTE: These will correspond to fields in Quickbase in later steps. For my example, I'm archiving Time Cards. I want a Date, Employee, Hours, and Related Time Card as my headers. Which should look as follows... Date,Employee,Hours,Related Time Card 4. Determine the Date and DateTime Formats. 5. Define the type of field needed for each column. In this example it is fine to leave all columns as "String". Step B: Search Your Quickbase table 1. Go to the Quickbase Channel > Records > Search Record. Drag this Step below Step A. 2. Select the Table you want to search your records for. 3. Select all the fields from the table that will be needed in upcoming steps. e.g. Date, Employee, Hours, Related Time Card. I also created a formula check box for "Previous Month" to use as a query. 4. (optional) Create a query for your records so we're only archiving the data you need. In my example, I'm saying when the "Previous Month" is "Yes"(true/checked). Step C: Add a Row for each record returned from Step B. 1. Locate the Bucket Channel > Pipelines Rows > Add a Row, drag this step under where it says "For each Record Do" for Step B. 2. Select Step A where it says "Pipeline Row". This will then populate your fields defined for each column in your spreadsheet. e.g. Date, Employee, Hours, Related Time Card. 3. Drag the appropriate fields from Step B to their Corresponding columns. Step D: Download CSV 1. Locate the Bucket Channel > Pipeline Rows > Download CSV. Drag this step below Step B. 2. Select Step A, in the area for "Pipeline Row". Step E: Upload File in Box 1. Locate the Box channel > Files > Upload File In. Drag this step below Step D. 2. Determine the Folder Path needed. In this example I will be uploading to a folder I titled "QB". Your folder path should look as follows...All Files/QB 3. Name your file. In this example I want the File name to be the date the upload was made. To do this I'm using a date/time conversion to return todays date and append with .csv. e.g.{{time.now|date_mdy}}.csv For more information on working with date and time in pipelines, click here. 4. Drag the download URL object from Step D to the URL in Step E. Final Step: Schedule your Pipeline! In the upper right corner of your screen locate where it says "Schedule pipeline" (just to the right of "Run Pipeline"). From here you can set the pipeline to run on the 1st of every Month. NOTE: the timezone is in UTC. Our pipeline is now complete! Below is what the final product should look like. When you're ready feel free to test the pipeline by clicking, "Run Pipeline". Go to Box and you will see your file uploaded!

3 MIN READ One of my joys as a Customer Success Manager is to connect with new builders to make sure they have all the resources and support at the beginning of their app-building journey. The top comment shared with me is that they can build an app but it isn’t pretty. Their first app is usually a “Franken-app.” It’s alive and can do what is required, but it looks a little wonky stitched together. Let’s change this! As app builders, we are also part designers. The way the app looks and feels affects the end-user experience. UI/UX designers live by this rule: Aesthetics + Function = Higher Adoption. Meet the Marie Kondo of Quickbase In my quest to find app beautifying tips, I got to meet Laura Linssen from J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc. After reading her blog feature and hearing about her Empower presentations, I had to ask her for ways new builders can create apps with the perfect balance between function and aesthetics. Is it even possible? If yes, where do they start? My interview with Laura offers many gems of inspiration for builders old and new. Laura describes her app aesthetic as “functional organization in color” which she defines as organizing things together and using colors to tell a story. You can add color to conversation threads, add color variations to group separate workflows, tabs, sections, and so much more. If you don’t have enough time to watch the video above, here are instant tips and tricks from Laura that you can implement right away to make an impact on the look and feel of your app. Always plan and build your apps with the end-user in mind. Get them involved in the planning process so they can proudly own the app and help train others on how to use it. You may end up spending closer to 50% of your time in the planning stage, but the investment in upfront planning will save you time in the long run. Accent the functionality of your app with color. Apply color to buttons, sections, tabs, important data, and formula functions to highlight what users should be drawn to. Be obvious with what users want to see. Check out what color palettes are trending and have fun! Don’t be afraid to use color combinations that are different from your company’s branding guide – especially for internal apps. There are many inspirational color variation sites to choose from like Canva, Adobe Color, and Design Bombs. Google 2023’s color of the year (it’s Viva Magenta) and see if you want to use it in your app. There are tons of color articles to read, and you can also use the hashtag #colortheory to search on social media to stay in tune with what’s hot. Many color generator sites are free and offer expert tips on color theory and psychology. Skip tables on dashboard-driven apps. Let’s be honest - tables are mostly clutter on a screen and aren’t generally useful to everyone accessing the dashboard. For cleaner lines and clutter reduction, you can link your tables to the dashboard for users who want to drill into the data. Use tabs, section headings, buttons, and formula functions to keep it organized. Formula functions can help show or hide what users need to see while keeping clean lines on forms or dashboards. Adding color-coded tabs and section headings to forms is a game-changer! Don’t be afraid of white space! Our eyes need a break from walls of data. Use empty space and formulas to organize your dashboards, forms, and reports. For more color and functional app organization tips, be sure to watch the full interview above. A huge thank you to Laura Linssen for taking the time to talk with me and share her app beautifying tricks with the Quickbase world. If you have any questions or comments for me or Laura, feel free to comment below and we’ll be happy to follow up.
Find the nearest Starbucks using QuickBase
Last week Howard popped into an "Office Hours" webinar asking about how to find the closest customers to a given Latitude and Longitude location. Well you can do that with QuickBase. I went looking for a CSV file with a bunch of Latitude and Longitude locations and I found a file with all the Starbucks locations in the US. The essence of the application is to find a Starbucks, enter the distance you want to search and return a report and map of all those locations within that distance.This can be calculated if you have both the Home and the Destination's Latitude and Longitude. So we now have a Locations table butktrachy@quickbase.com we need to add a parent table we can use to pass down all the home's Latitude, Longitude and Distance as lookup fields. We add the "Common Parent" table with only one record and made that related to all Location records. (we changed the reference field, "Related Common Parent" to a formula numeric field and put the number 1 in as a formula. Since there was only one Common Parent record, it's Record ID# was 1. So we created an automation that fires whenever a Location record's "Within Miles" field is updated. The automation will edit the parent record and update its Latitude, Longitude and Within Miles fields. This constant one to ALL relationship between the tables allowed us to always be sharing the last requested Latitude, Longitude and Mileage. Trigger: Action: Now that all the data is on all the location records, we added a formula numeric field to calculate the distance between the two. var number HomeLat = ToNumber([Home Latitude]); var number HomeLong = ToNumber([Home Longitude]); var number Lat = ToNumber([Destination Latitude]); var number Long = ToNumber([Destination Longitude]); var number Distance = Round(((69*($HomeLat - $Lat))^2 + (53*($HomeLong - $Long))^2)^0.5); If($HomeLat = 0 or $Lat= 0 , 0 , $Distance) Next we needed a way to flag only those locations that were within the "Within Miles" range. We created a formula checkbox field that would be checked if the Location record was within the range. So now we have the matching criteria to create the report link fields to display the results. The result: We cover topics like this in our daily, "Office Hours"webinars. Held M-F at 1:00 PM Eastern time.

Our Discussions threads are a great place to collaborate with other problem-solvers on your questions. Below are some suggestions to help you get your Question noticed. Also find out about techniques to make sure your fellow problem-solvers have all the information they need to turn your current challenge into your next accomplishment. ShowandTell When possible include a screenshot or video of the issue you are running into if relevant. For example, when you are building a form and looking for a specific set up it can be great to include a screenshot indicating what part of the Form you are working in, what is missing, and if possible what you are hoping to add. The only thing you want to be sure of when posting a screenshot is that it doesn't include any sensitive data you wouldn't want to share to the public. You can choose to pull in images right from your device or a number of other services and you can pick a default size and then drag right in the editor to get the sizing just right. Where Does it Hurt? When asking about Error Messages you are receiving include the subject of the error message and the specifics of the warning you are seeing. The error messages usually include helpful hints about what is going wrong or a clue to your issue even when they are hard to read. You can also find more about our Error Codeshereand in ourHelp Frame Your Formulas It can be very handy to place a formula inside a code sample as it highlights the formula as distinct from your question and helps to identify the formula you are working with. This helps to draw the eye for those helping you to the formula and make sure it doesn't run together with the rest of your question. If([Question Answered]="No", "Ask Question", "Offer Help") You can insert a code sample using the button shown below in the editor (I default to HTML unless I'm using a specific language) Tag Your Question Once you have posted up your question make sure you are including tags that are relevant to your question. You can do this by opening up your question and clicking Add a Tag right below the title. For example, if your question is on a formula to help you identify a record that is overdue theFormulas and FunctionsTag will help other users interested in formulas find your question. This can help you get the attention of a formula guru in the Community. It also helps us to categorize questions and the resulting solutions so that others can benefit from your questions. Thank you for joining the Quick Base Community and asking your questions and offering your expertise. At Quick Base we learn best as a Community. ------------------------------ Evan Martinez Community Manager ------------------------------"Soft Delete" | Protecting your data from accidental deletion
A customer asked me today to help him recover records that were accidentally deleted. Well, hopefully you know that in an emergency, you can open a support case and our care team can help but he wanted to PREVENT the event from happening in the first place. My immediate thought was that this was another use case that would benefit from having a restore feature but there is a better and simpler solution using what one of our Senior Product Manager, Harrison Hersch calls "Soft Delete". Say you have a community of users that are notoriously deleting records and you need to restore them. For simplicity we'll call them Sales people, but we have all done this. How about we craft the Sales role to not allow record deletions? This solves part of the problem, but the other part is that the Sales people really would like to delete some records. Well, how about adding a checkbox we can call, "Soft Delete" and we adjust the Sales Role so they can only view records where the "Soft Delete" checkbox is unchecked. This now means that the Sales people can check the checkbox and the records will disappear from view. Whatever record they check will appear to be deleted but in fact it has only disappeared from their Sales role's view. We can then create a report that only contains records with the checkbox check and Administrators can now review, restore or permanently delete. A whole bunch of things can be added to this process to make it slick and easy to manage. We can add a button that checks that checkbox We can create a subscription report to remind the Administrator to review, restore or delete the records permanently We can create a schedule automation to delete the flagged records We can add a table to the app to handle Sales people's escalation requests to restore accidentally deleted records. The list can go on... Steps: Add the "Soft Delete" checkbox to your form or report. Create a Sales role (or whatever community of users you want protection) Flag the role so Deletions are disallowed Customize the View so you can only see records where the "Soft Delete" is not checked Optionally add a Formula URL button that will make checking the checkbox easier. You can press the button whether you are in display mode or edit mode. If you don't have a button, you will have to put the record in edit mode to check the checkbox. The code for the Formula URL button can look something like this: var text url = If([Soft Delete] = false, URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&apptoken=biwvb32baypdx8cqfjj9pk2xiim&rid=" & [Record ID#] & "&_fid_26=1", URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&apptoken=biwvb32baypdx8cqfjj9pk2xiim&rid=" & [Record ID#] & "&_fid_26=0"); "javascript:" & "$.get('" & $url & "',function(){" & "location.reload();" & "});" & "void(0);" Update the apptoken specific for your application and change the fid_26 to reflect the field ID number of your checkbox field. NOTE: QuickBase does not support the use of JavaScript in buttons. An alternative button below may be used instead but you will have to manually decide where you want to redirect. In the example below this will leave you on a report (qid=1). If([Checkbox] = false, URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&apptoken=c7y3n83dz8fuc2n8jum5dzq4iky&rid=" & [Record ID #] & "&_fid_101=1" & "&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=q&qid=1"), URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&apptoken=c7y3n83dz8fuc2n8jum5dzq4iky&rid=" & [Record ID #] & "&_fid_101=0" & "&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=q&qid=1")) We cover topics like this each weekday in our "Office Hours" webinars. This is an open conversation inviting questions and live modeling of how-to solutions. M-F at 1pm Eastern time.

QuickBase and DocuSign
Hello, I am trying to see if QuickBase pipelines can help with a DocuSign issue. We have a Contract for Construction. Inside there is a checkbox for the signer to state if they are the property owner or not. If they are NOT the property owner, we would like to send out another document (Letter of Authorization) to the property owner using QuickBase pipelines. Is it possible to check for both the email of the owner and the checkbox status from the Contract for Construction, and use that to send out the Letter of Authorization? I see there are some connections to DocuSign but I don't quite understand how they work. Any help would be appreciated! ------------------------------ Cassandra Friend ------------------------------
