I built this summary report and need help filtering out duplicated clients. This report is built on the "Case Clients" table that is the many-to-many table connecting "People" to "Cases". I need this report to only show unduplicated people within each column. I have not used Help!Quickbase University Is Evolving: What You Need to Know About the Upcoming Launch

Pipeline Error trying to Create a Record
I am not a fan of Pipelines. I miss Automations. I used to be able to build an Automation in like 30 min and it did what I wanted. I've been working two days to build this Pipeline, even using the AI to do the framework, and I get nothing but errors or issues like this one. The intent of this pipeline is, if a record is created/updated in one app, it will look to see if there is a matching record in another app. If there is a matching record in the other app based on a site # & uniquely created identifier, it will update any modified changes in the second app. If there is not a matching record, it will create one in the second app. After tweaking several different things, I finally got it to create the record. At first, it was saying it was finding a record that matched the criteria despite no record being present. But now, whenever it does the search for a "Matching Record" based on the criteria I asked it to look at (site & unique identifier), it continues to have a FALSE finding and just creates a duplicate instead of updating. And the Activity log seems to say that it couldn't find the record based on the search criteria but created duplicate records with the exact criteria it was asked to look for. (I now have 5 records with identical site #s and unique #'s. What am I missing to get it to have a TRUE finding of the record. Also, is there any way to change the "Query" to look at anything besides the Record ID??Data Change Logs Just Got Smarter!
Having visibility into what changed, when, and by whom, and being able to restore previous values is essential to every software we use nowadays. This is even more important for maintaining trust, accuracy, and control in your Quickbase apps. That’s why we are rolling out a major upgrade to our Audit Logs and particularly to Data Change Logs - giving admins a more powerful, reliable way to track and recover data changes with (almost) zero setup required. What’s New in a Nutshell All scalar fields are now tracked by default once auditing for an app is enabled - no manual enabling needed Only actual field changes are logged - cleaner, more relevant audit trails App admins can now restore changed and deleted values - right from the app audit log Existing field property repurposed - now controls presence in change logs, not logging behavior See full release notes Let’s unpack the details. Easier Setup: Track All Scalar Fields Automatically Previously, tracking data changes required manually enabling individual fields one by one. Now, all scalar fields (like text, numbers, dates, checkboxes, and more) are automatically audited as soon as auditing for an app is turned on. Realm admins can enable data change logs for a particular app from the Admin Console Apps page: As soon as data change logs for an app are enabled, we will start tracking any data changes for all scalar fields in the app. The changed data will be stored at a record level. Here’s an example data change log event for a single record (both in app and realm audit logs): Once you click on the “View data changes” link, the following modal is displayed: The pop-up will contain the previous and current values for all fields from the record where data changes have been made. That same information is also available in JSON format in the CSV export, as well as in our Audit REST API. A Smarter Use of a Field Property We’ve also updated the meaning of the Track field property (Table settings ---> Fields ---> Field Properties) Before: This determined whether the field was tracked at all: Now: All scalar fields are always tracked. The repurposed field only controls whether the field is always shown in the record change log, no matter if the field data has been changed or not: If you already have an app where data change logs had been previously enabled, we will automatically start tracking all fields. However, you may want to do a clean-up and uncheck the repurposed checkbox for some fields to avoid them being always unnecessarily present in the change log entries. You should also keep in mind that if you disable data change logs for an app that had tracking for certain fields already enabled, the setting for these fields will persist the next time you enable data change logs for that same app. Restore Changed Data Instantly This one’s a game-changer: App admins can now restore a field’s previous value directly from the app audit logs. This works both for updated and deleted records. Whether it was a bulk update gone wrong or someone changing the wrong record, app admins can recover from data mistakes in seconds - no need to dig through manual backups, contact tech support or manually re-enter data. What you need to do: Locate in the logs the record that you want to restore, click “View data changes” Select the fields you want to restore - all of them or specific ones Click “Restore previous values” Upon a successful restore, you should see a message like this: You can also restore any deleted record as a new record: • Note • Keep in mind that the data restore option is available only in the app audit log. Data change logs are available in the realm logs, but realm admins do not have the ability to restore data. This is intentional, as we would like to keep the restore closer to where the data lives. Designed to Scale Some of you generate millions of audit events every single day. As part of this change, we thoroughly evaluated the platform performance to ensure app experience and audit performance are not impacted. The new changes are not going to affect your app space entitlements – audit is a separate service. We also decided to retain the existing limit of 50 auditable apps per realm. While this may change in the future, we want to better understand your usage patterns, compliance needs, and platform behavior before potentially enabling higher app limits. The Big Picture Data change log updates are part of a broader investment in powerful, scalable audit capabilities. Read our recent blog post for details on other recent audit improvements.

Hi all, I want to use a gauge chart the displays the number of records that contain the letter 'R' as part of a string of in a 'Job Number' field, out of the total number of records in the table. Typically a job number field value would be in the format of 00000_00, or 00000_A0, or 00000_R00. With R denoting revised. I've tried using a query report formula, but whilst it's a valid formula attempt, it displays 0. The total number of records for the gauge var text QUERY = "{6.EX." & Contains([Job Number], "R") & "}"; Size( GetRecords($QUERY)) My logic to the above is that its querying the data table, for job number field (ID 6) to see if it contains a string with an 'R' in it, and if so count the total number of true records. Any ideas? It would be awesome if the gauge can be coloured to show the revised element in red, but the remainder of the gauge in green. But I really think that's beyond the limits of what is possible. However, if anyone has an idea how this could be accomplished, that would be absolutely appreciated!
