I’m a very new user to Softr, and have been using AirTable for data management for about a year (so, moderate beginner with AirTable).
I’ve started watching the Softr Academy vidoes and I’m almost finished with my first app.
What I want:
The app I’m building is a straightforward tool for artists & writers to search a database in Airtable (I’ll likely move the databases over to Softr as well). I’d a button in the Softr App that allows each logged-in user to add an event to their Calendar - whatever calendar that might be. The event date will vary, based upon the data in the underlying record.
I’ve had difficulty finding clear instructions with enough details for someone with no coding experience. I really thought this was an easy idea to implement, so I’m not sure if I’m approaching this the wrong way. The closest suggestion I’ve found elsewhere is a general suggestion to create a formula field in my database (AirTable) that creates a URL (through CalendarLink) using data in my base, then use the Button Action in Softr to open that URL when clicked by the user. This made sense but I haven’t been able to get it to work. Looking for any ideas that keeps this simple. I don’t want the user to export to csv then upload it themselves. If there’s a clear, easy to follow resource, then point me in that direction…
Thanks!
