How to limit the linked records field selection to only one record?

I'm not able to create another record. The "Create New" button does not show up.

Updated over a week ago

This option has to be set manually in the linked records field settings on miniExtensions to limit it to only accepting a single record. You can find it by going to:

  1. Form Fields

  2. Click on a Linked Records field

  3. Record Finder Options section

  4. Turn off Allow selecting multiple records

💡Tip

If your field settings on Airtable have the "Allow linking to multiple records" option disabled, users will still be able to add multiple linked records on the form even if the field on Airtable is set to only allow a single linked record.

⚠️ Note

When this option is disabled, users cannot select (or create) multiple records. Although this setting might indicate that it only affects "selecting". However, it also affects "creating" multiple records (if enabled).


On the legacy site app.miniExtensions.com

Go to:

  1. Form (Edit & Add Records in the portal)

  2. Click on the linked record field

  3. "Selecting Records"

  4. Allow users to select multiple records
