If you looked at my 10 steps above on what my macro looks like, its highly optimized to take an image host URL and reupload it into airtable. Ideally, the macro should be entirely run with keyboard strokes as a best practice, and minimal mouse movement for robust / reliability / reproduceability on different PCs. Its important to set a hotkey for these because any mouse + keyboard movement gets added into your macro while its recording, giving you lots of bad data to work with How to create your own macroįirst, think about the shortest number of potential keys to run the macro. I personally only use CTRL+ALT+R and CTRL+ALT+E in this example The first thing you want to do when setting up your macro is setting up binding hotkeys There’s many other mouse recording macro solutions (Pulover’s macro) but I personally like mouserecorder a lot, because its not horribly complicated to learn Initial setup: you have some 4mB files, some 300 kB files, in no particular order) Now to setup macro in MouseRecorderįirst thing you want to do is download the program if you haven’t already This is good if your file uploads are inconsistent in nature (e.g. your macro checks if a pixel on your application / window changes to determine what steps to do next).
I personally find on my network settings, 30 mpbs download 10 mbps upload, that 8000 ms or 8 seconds is good up to a 4 mB image sizeĪlso, with some MouseRecording functions, you can run PixelChecks (e.g. After step 7 will have the longest delay, because the file is being physically uploaded to airtable. Inbetween each step, there’s a pause delay. I make my macro press enter again just in case this comes up (5.5.) ENTER On some windows PCs, windows will display a security message asking you to login to your image host. (9) ↓ (this brings you back to the next set of images) (7) Enter (this physically uploads the file to airtable)
(6) Enter (to tell Airtable to grab the image from your imagehost) (5) CTRL+V (to paste the image URL directly in)
(4) Enter (opens up windows explorer to browse for file) RIGHT SIDE your image host URL, LEFT SIDE is resulting airtable upload My macro only works for my computer + network settings (Windows 10), so you might not get the same results I will.īut this is how you would recreate the macro SPECIFIC to your settings:įirst, understand how the macro works in a nutshell This is the program I use (Easy-to-use Applications that runs off AutoHotkey)
