I have a use case for airtable product and want to see if its possible already or if its planned or suggested. Or maybe its outside of the scope of what airtables invisions to do with its product.

In a nutshell it would make airtable act like a platform, where relatively complex soft and apps are developed and sold out as a product on its own to other businesses and customers.

 

Use case description:

1. I create a workflow with automations, syncs and all that airtable has to offer in one workspace, with multiple bases synced between them in one workspace. So it becomse like a app or a soft in itself.

2. Then this workspace is like the "Admin or Blueprint Workspace", that can be replicated multiple times (100ds, and 1000ds of times), that creates "child workspaces" of this workspace.

3. The main challenge is: when you make a change in the "BluePrint or Admin Worspace" (like formulas, fields and so on), this change syncs across all of its "child workspaces".

Hey ​@Ion_Mura!

 

As mentioned by you, keeping the sync/updates on all bases would be the biggest issue. Airtable is an amazing software, but for this specific use case building something with custom code seems like the best and most scalable solution. 
 

Just thinking out loud!


@Mike_AutomaticN, you’re right, but if this would be possible, it would be a game changer and a different level for airtable and it’s marketplace developers.
