Hi everyone,
I'm looking for the best approach for the following use case.
We have a read-only Shared View that we share with an external agency. They should be able to update only one field (Status Massnahme), which contains multiple predefined single-select status values.
We do not want to give them collaborator access or edit permissions to the base.
My initial idea was to include a button or link in the Shared View that would trigger an n8n workflow to update the record. However, since there are many possible status values, I'm wondering if there's a better approach.
Has anyone implemented a similar workflow?
Some questions:
-
Is it possible to let external users update only one field from a Shared View?
-
Would you recommend n8n, Airtable Portals, Fillout, Interfaces, or another solution?
-
If using n8n, how would you pass the record ID and let the user choose from multiple status values?
-
Are there any limitations with buttons or links in Shared Views that I should be aware of?
The goal is to keep the Shared View read-only while allowing the agency to update only the campaign status in a secure and simple way.
Thanks in advance for any recommendations or examples!
