• Private alpha to public: how we took feedback from this community to make a less-crappy app

  Hey all, full disclosure, I'm working on usebracket.com, a no-code way to sync Airtable & Google Sheets with larger databases (like Postgres & MySQL). We've been in private alpha for a while, and I've gotten on feedback calls with a couple of people from this community. I just wrote a blog post that talks about how we're taking that feedback into account with our public alpha! Wanted to share here because, well,... Source: about 1 year ago

• Sync Snowflake and Google Sheets

  Your next best bet is to use a more technically savvy solution: ETL (or ELT) and reverse ETL. ETL and reverse ETL can help ensure a single source of truth for your company. However, ETL and reverse ETL are pricey to sync both ways, you need 2 separate providers, they aren’t optimized for speed because teh fastest they sync is hourly, and you still need to handle merge conflicts.

Method #4: Use Bracket for two-way syncs (https://usebracket.com) Sometimes, you just want the same data to show up in two different places in real-time.

• Growing a side-project to 100k Unique Visitors in one week

  For the backend, I opted for Airtable as a database. It's a simple, no-code solution that I've used before. It's not the most powerful database, but it's perfect for a project like this. I could easily add, edit, and delete records, and it has an embeddable form functionality that I used for user submissions. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• How to generate links to a record to view it in an Interface?

  The ?XXXXX part of the URL identifies the type of interface page it is. Just copy that and then your formula is just "https://airtable.com.../...?XXXXXX=" & RECORD_ID() I'm not sure it works in every type of interface page (where you've started from a blank page for example). There has to be something to identify the record viewed from the page, if you see what I mean. Source: 10 months ago
