Filtering records coming from Airtable into PDF via extensions

Hi

I am looking at using the Air table extension tool to take information from one base into a printable PDF output. It will be for multiple record lines but I would like to filter those lines based on a variable condition.

Essentially I have a large database of records of equipment, these are assigned to certain clients by a dropdown field, I would like to output a pdf that shows all the records that a related to that specific client.

Ive seen there is the filter and loop condition but how do I set that condition to be variable in air table - aka press one button and it prints the equipment for one client.

Hello @Michael.Whittaker,

Yes, the extension itself doesn't have the filtering option and you can manage it using the templating syntax. For example, using hide-block-if and filter.

Also, try to use Airtable Automations and Airtable scripts similarly as described here.
