Here is something that may be worth trying.  
Have the Excel GetCell access and setting of Buttons2 in a different block, triggered by another button for test.  
Or alternatively, put a small delay (wait 1 second) just before the airtable access.

What I am wondering is if the process of accessing the airtable is delayed because of all the other things the application has to do at start-up, basically getting some stand-in answer before the device had the time to query the table.

Hi,

I think that an error with access to this table. What is in the “error” block? Check all fields for access to AirTable - APIKey, BaseID, TableName, ViewName.

First of all, it is better to check with the help of the GetAllRows block whether the data is returned from the table.

You can obtain the download url for the object using the url property. Here is a very simple example Thunkable program that retrieves an…
