Hi

I have a search function that works fine for my Airtable database. I only have one table in the database as for now.  
But I will need alot of tables since I am working on a inventory app  
Can I use a function to create a loop that loops through every table when the user clicks search?  
This is the setup so far

Hi @robert.lundelli4pcye  
To go through multiple tables, you will need multiple loops.

So no possibility to create a function for this?

Maybee easier to link tables inside Airtable.

@robert.lundelli4pcye It is not possible to use a function because you can’t set the table names dynamically.  
You could use Web API blocks or use the existing blocks multiple times.

Ok.

I will try to link the tables in Airtable and use only one loop.

Lets see how that work 🙂
