Hey @mspilski07svs5qe

Other user had some troubles with this, I replied in their post and added images with some block. Maybe it can help you!

> Ok cool! I see what you did slight_smile Let me help you a little bit but I want you to learn how to code it! Does that sound good? First just checking you have your API key set? Be sure to add you API key, BaseID, TableName, and View Name correctly. First you have to set your columns names Then to save some blocks I would save the answers in variables like so slight_smile Once you have all the answers then the last step is to add them to your data base slight_smile …

Also check the documentation it’s great! 🙂

That post doesn’t really help because I need to pull all data from the location name column and put it into table view and you are saving so… I’m hoping someone can help because I spent 4 hours trying diff things and couldn’t figure it out.

Ok ok,

The documentation for spreadsheets and airtable has this block already assembled:

Have you tried this? For your case it should be something like this depending on which column you want to get.

If you want to get rows instead then use the row block:  
(Haven’t tried it yet but it should work with something like this)

And relax 🙂 it will eventually work out!
