[image] Carter: like Airtable that would allow me to do automatic actions according to dates etc Hola! May you give us some examples about this restriction?

With Glide Table, you can create automation only with a trigger action and not with a condition. Per exemple, if the contract will be expire in 3 months, we can’t send an automation email to the client without click in a trigger button.

It’s a long workaround, but you can send the relevant data to a data store in Make and have the automation run on schedule there. The tricky part, I think, is if you make any changes after the initial add then you must sync that with the Make data store as well.

Is Airtable with Glide fast and optimized?
