Interface Designer

I have an Interface with multiple pages.  The data comes from Tables that sync with Jira JQLS per page.I want to be able to invite someone to ONE Page in the Interface but restrict access to the rest of the pages.  How do I do that when the data is not user specific?

Hello Airtable experts,I've noticed the following issue and would, of course, like to resolve it. Maybe you have a solution for me. I have some interfaces set to grid view because I import data from Excel using copy and paste. However, I've noticed that the page is very sluggish in grid view. When I switch the page to list view, it runs smoothly.Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Hello,I’m looking for advice and best practices on how to build personalized employee dashboards/pages in Airtable.Currently, I use Airtable to track tasks for my employees. Each task is stored as a record in a table, with fields such as: Assigned employee Task status Hours spent Cost Performance-related information Other operational details What I would like to achieve is the following: Each employee should have access only to their own tasks and related information Employees should be able to view their task details and performance metrics through a simple personalized page/interface The solution needs to scale for 500+ employees My initial idea was: Create an Interface page for each employee Filter the page by employee name

Hi everyone!I'm currently building a custom interface extension using React and I've run into a bit of a roadblock that I'm hoping someone here might have solved. Our goal is to embed the native Airtable comment section directly inline within our custom detail view. We really want to give our users the exact same seamless experience they get in the native Interface Designer, complete with inline display, @mention autocomplete, and full comment threads, all without popping out a separate window.So far, we've tried using expandRecord, but unfortunately, that forces a separate modal to open rather than letting us keep the comments inline with the rest of our UI. We also looked into building a fully custom solution using the /comments REST API. However, recreating the native @mention autocomplete and manually mapping user IDs to render styled badges is turning out to be quite a heavy lift that requires a massive amount of

Hi everyone,I’m using a Kanban element in Airtable Interface Designer, stacked by a Single Select field.The issue is that an extra stack called “Uncategorized” keeps appearing, even though: “Uncategorized” is not an option in my Single Select field One of the Single Select options is already set as the default I checked the records and found no records where this Single Select field is emptyI also found an old community thread from around 9 years ago discussing a similar issue: [HERE]From what I understand, the suggested workaround was to collapse the stack, but I couldn’t find a clear solution to fully hide or remove it. Please correct me if I missed somethingHas anyone found a current workaround for this

Hello,The question is fairly simple.I have an Interface page with a button that updates a field called “X” (basically an on/off checkbox). However, I would also like to record which user triggered the button and when it was triggered.Updating the checkbox itself is immediate using a button with the “Update record” action.My questions are: Is there any way to also capture the portal user’s email, ID, or any other unique identifier into another field (let’s call it “Action X triggered by user”) using the same “Update record” button action, or would I need to trigger an automation and run a script? Same question for storing the timestamp when the button is clicked. Notes: I tried using a single line text field for the user, but the value is not dynamic and must be predefined in the Interface button settings. I also tried using a “User” field in the table, but I ran into the sa

Hello, community. I’ve already submitted my request via the Airtable form, but I wanted to ask if any of you would find this useful as well? Maybe some feedback on this would help draw attention to it. I think it would be great if we could save and select presets of an interface’s settings. For example, I want to see a specific type of task here that I need from time to time. Having a saved setting for this would be great. What do you think?

Hey everyone, it’s 2026. We’ve all asked this many times before.But I thought with a new year half way over, people may have seen new tools.Is there a solid mobile-first front-end platform that plays nicely with Airtable? Interfaces is desktop-focused. Softr went backwards. Many others are out of date or just replicate interfaces.Has anyone seen anything new?

Hi,I want to create an interface for users with a list of records. There should be one button for all records where an automation runs if it is clicked. The automation behind the button is to mark all filtered fields so that they can copied to another table with another automation.How can I create this button?ThanksCordu

Hi Guys, Here’s a good question for you… https://airtable.com/app6l4Fik0Jjk9V6c/shrAYvfZtA01SMOeo/tblRizkshJb46W2Sd If you click this link, you will see a shareable view to the Hire Days delivered for this campaign. Each day is (or might be) delivered by a different Driver/Staff member.  I would like to send this sharable view to a client. They will click the ‘Button’ of the Hire Day they wish to give feedback on. This Button should link to a form, where the Customer gives a rating out of 5 for this Driver/Staff members performance for this day.  This rating should then be recorded against this Staff Member (under a different table called “Staff Members”). And, ultimately, it will create an Average rating out of 5 stars for this Driver / Staff member. Think U

Hi all,I built a custom extension 3d model viewer that runs great on localhost. However, when I block release, I get this error message: Bundling... doneUploading... Incomplete    Error: ❌ Could not upload bundle. The bundle's size is too big.    Code: s3ApiBundleTooLargeI can’t find anything in the documentation about package size. Is there a way to work around this? My goal is to use this in an interface as a first check for model geometry, etc. We still download and open in a slicer or CAM application prior to manufacturing. 

Hey community! Long-time lurker, first-time builder posting here.Like many of you, I've been frustrated with Page Designer living in base extensions while all my users are interface-only. Every time someone in the community asked "can I use Page Designer in interfaces?" the answer was always not yet. So I decided to just build it myself.What I builtA full drag-and-drop page layout designer that lives directly inside an Interface page as a custom element. It looks and feels like Page Designer, but it's a first-class interface citizen.Here's what it supports so far:📄 Page size presets — A4, Letter, Business Card, custom dimensions 🖱️ Drag-and-drop canvas — absolute positioning, resize handles, rotation, layer ordering (front/back) 🔤

We’re using Airtable to review pdf documents, and the thumbnail on the interface page is just 5-10% too small for our users to do their job. They need to be able to look at the document and enter information on the same page, and clicking on the attachment field to get a better look takes the user away from the fields the need to access.Setting the appearance to “hero” in the settings and fitting the image to size makes it slightly too small to be useable. Unchecking “fit image size” degrades the quality to slightly too fuzzy to be comfortable to read.Noloco’s interface solves this particular problem easily, because they place the preview window directly in the interface, but we want to go back to Airtable’s native interface for a lot of other reasons.Does anyone have an idea of how to solve this, or can we request a slightly larger zoom on a pdf fit to size, or better quality preview resolution?

I'm glad you can share an individual page in an interface. It's a decent improvement but still not the best solution. Now, if you could public share a full interface or at least the overview page, it would be such a much needed game-changer.Being able to share the Overview page of an interface with a nice cover image would be so helpful when sharing with a client or customer. It looks professional, well organized and nicely structured. Perfect if you want to share only the information without providing full access.Notion (overrated IMO) allows this (sharing of a workspace) where you can organize it and make it look professional. Currently in Airtable, when I end up haveing to share multiple URLs for different pages, clients get very overwhelmed. Being able to publicly share an interface would be incredible.

In the interface I have a list with two linked levels. Level 2 (parent) only has a handful of records. One of the records in Level 2 has over 4000 Level1 (child) records. When I open that parent record to vie the child records it is extremely slow and the slowness makes the application largely non responsive - until I move to a different parent record or some other table in the interface.  If I simply open another list in the interface with only the one child table, all 4500 records open pretty much instantly. What's the best way to handle this? 

Hi,As our team has grown from 1 person to over 5, we’re seeing an increasing amount of user errors, leading to costly data fixing maintenance. To some part a new user will become more proficient over time and will be able to avoid errors, but as long as it’s possible to err, humans will. The aim is to further expand, so at this point I’m taking some time to consider alternatives.What alternatives/add-ons are there one could consider to improve the UX and data integrity? I want to stick to Airtable as the system centre, but I am willing to fork over some parts of the most used interfaces to another system, if that would bring order to the current issues. Mobile use is not critical for use, lean laptop use is.I remember hearing about Noloco in some discussion. Would that help? What other systems comes to your mind?At the heart of our problems are these Airtable’s inabilities:inability to update a record only when separate (e.g.) “OK/Save” is cli

This question has probably already been answered… but I haven’t managed to find it.So here it goes.I’m trying to implement a work control system for a nursing home. Many of the staff only need to view their tasks and record certain information in a couple of processes.I’ve designed a form for this purpose.On the other hand, the Interface contains multiple administrative views and queries.Currently, we only have one editor user and one viewer user.Unfortunately, I can’t get the staff to have access only to creating, editing, and viewing their own tasks.I’ve tried embeds, iframes, HTML… in many different ways, and nothing works. Airtable always limits me.Am I doing something wrong?Do I necessarily have to pay for additional users?Would that give me another interface?Would Fillout (as suggested by Scott Rose @ScottWorld) be the solution?I don’t want to use tools like Make or n8n.Than

We’ve never had this issue before, but the Interface we use for our sales team keeps crashing.  This recently started happening since Monday, April 20th.  It seems to be connected to the total number of operations in the report, but my question is why is this an issue now and not before yesterday?

Hi,How can I change which fields are visible in the “Click to see underlying records” drill-down in an interface dashboard pivot table?Automatically I get “sum” and “link to cost centers” but I’d need to show something else.  Airtable instructions claim that you should be able to do it, but I just can’t see where to do it. 

Hello, I tried to find out a solution the whole afternoon but I am not sure if it is possible, so I drop the question here, maybe there is something I am missing out. Table  The idea is to get this form with conditional selector here (this is part of “add a new record form”) So basically, from the perspective of the user, ideally, he should get “Draft” selected on the approval selector, that would force only “planned” or “cancelled” on lifecycle, and depending on that, it also allows “not started” or “-” on the operational selector. Which should be a match with the table logic. Conclusions (they can be wrong)Visibility rul

Hello, This is probably a recurrent question.I found this but I think it is not practical as it requires user interaction to filter by a checkbox (see:  Hello,My idea is, considering the new AI features in place—particularly in a field agents scenario—to create a form to add a new record. This would essentially be a form to upload a document, along with a checkbox called “Auto AI Recognition” to enable or disable the field agents (I would use this checkbox as a trigger) to read the document and populate the different fields in the table as required.However, once the document is uploaded and the form is submitted, the form disappears. At that point, I would like to redirect the user’s browser to the newly created record so they can verify that the information populated by the field agents makes sense, and validate

Is there a way to add an outlook email as an attachment that can be opened and viewed later? Currently we can add the email in the attachment field but when trying to open it, it looks like gibberish. I can download then, but would rather not add that step to an otherwise simple workflow.   

Is it possible to access a shared interface page via the mobile app?

Hi!I am looking for a workaround, where I can turn a single record with multiple dates into separate records with a single date… new records are created via FillOut.  we’re a charity delivering some programmes over multi week periods. An employee completes the fill out form, puts the dates they’d like us to deliver the programme on, and then submits the form. i can view all these dates via calendar view, but was hoping to view them via list view also but as they’re individual records it won’t work this way. sorry this probably isn’t making much sense but hoping someone will understand where I’m coming from…thanks!

I am trying to create a public interface, where I will allow people to search for submitted serial no.Only if you enter the correct serial number in full (without case sensitivity), a list will be shown for all records that matches the S/N you entered.Is this possible with interface?
