I’m using n8n to update reservations in Airtable.
In the Update Record node, fields like Tipo_de_mesa or Numero_de_personas appear as “Defined automatically by the model”, sometimes even with default values (e.g., 0), when they should only be mapped with the data I receive
Could you try to expand on the issue a bit? If you want it to be set automatically, click on the button to the right, if you want it to be set manually, set the values manually. What is the error?
Hi, The issue is that in the Update Record node I see a yellow warning asking me to refresh the schema. When I click refresh, the fields (like Tipo_de_mesa and Número_de_personas) stop showing as “Defined automatically by the model” and appear correctly from Airtable. Until I refresh, those fields cause errors
What i would suggest is to delete the airtable node and add it again, i dont know how to explain it, but it personally works for me when a node configuration is not doing or showing what it supposed to
i think the first image happens because you click the execute step button straightly on the node, that;s why it asks you for that
try to test or execute it from outside the specific node, the execute step button on the canvas, the one tht u see that is always in the bottom middle of your editor tab
You’re saying to run Workflow, with the Airtable done again without running it from Airtable with everything filled in by the AI, that’s what I’ve done and it keeps happening, look
Yes, I do, but sometimes a yellow button appears next to values to update, saying they are outdated and to refresh. Now I have them all, but it asks me to fill this out
It looks like the input from the ai for the telephone field and date fields are strings. Airtable wants a number and if it’s a date field it needs to be formatted as a ISO 8601 formatted string. you can test this by changing the fields in airtable to a text field and see if it works. If so, you’ll need to have the ai output the correct format to airtable either in the prompt or by using fromai{} and adding the format type explicitly. Hope that helps.
Hello, after trying up to what you have told me in the same airtable table, it continues to give me problems. The truth is that the ID has always failed me as you can see, I use the n8n Tool call like the one the guy in the course video I’m watching has, I have it identical, I use this subworkflow of “Verify_available_hours” David appears when Rosa requests the reservation for example. first but it is also how the 7 items in the table arrive. I mean the n8n tool call is in charge of finding the ID, now, it is curious that if I remove the AI, the codes come out in green, that means they are working well, I think. So what could it be because it seems to find the ID correctly and everything?
