Hello,

For those who use managed apps in Airtable. Is there an easy way to identify the fields that were added at the managed app level, meaning fields that are specific to that app?

Right now it’s not very clear which fields belong to the base structure and which ones were created by the managed app.

Thanks for your help.

Not natively. Unlike synced fields, there isn’t a subtle change to the field icon. The fields aren’t identified as part of a managed app in the “Manage Fields” tool either.

What I tend to do is add a key phrase to the description of each managed field in the development base. This will push down to every deployed instance. It allows you to search by that phrase.
