Interface Designer

Hi, I have a field that references the customer table. When I work in grid mode, it gives me the opportunity to add a new record in this field, however if I create a form and enter this field does not give me the option to add records.How can I enable this option to add records in a link to another record field in a form?Many thanks for your help 

I've got a weird issue I can't find a solution for: using a list view for linked records in interface designer. I have a record list to choose from Table A, with a linked record to table B. I can display that linked record field to show a list of items from Table B, that works great! But if I try to use that list view as a two level view to group those items, it gives me the error:"Unable to use non-table source in this context" and shows nothing. I think this is saying that the interface essentially doesn't have the data I'm trying to use, but I have no way to resolve it sadly, and changing which levels are used doesn't make any difference

Hello,I've created an app to record deliveries when they arrive at construction sites. The app is designed to handle multiple projects, and the person in charge can use the search bar to find the relevant delivery.The app is based on a two-level hierarchy:Delivery information (visible in the main list).Detailed product list (accessible when clicking on a specific delivery).The project name is always included in the delivery title, and users typically search for deliveries using this title.The search functionality works perfectly on all devices except Android.If anyone can help resolve this bug, I would greatly appreciate it.Thank you!

Have a nice day,I would like to ask for advice - I have created an interface in which I have created buttons - in the web version everything works correctly. But when I display it in the mobile app, the buttons do not appear there. In addition, the search button is displayed there, although again I don't have it enabled in the web version.Can anyone advise? Or is this an airtable bug?Thanks a lot!

I wonder if anyone's done anything similar?We get customer feedback on designs and it's usually in the form of a spreadsheet emailed over, with feedback points per row so I'm creating a customer facing form for them to fill in so it's captured in Airtable as a task.Our 'Task' structure is a Tasks table, and a separate one for 'Subtasks' that are linked records.   Does anyone know if there'd be an easy way to allow the customer to create subtasks from the Feedback form before submitting? Currently if I pull in the Subtask field to the form, it allows them to select from the existing list of subtasks, but not create a new one.   Obviously the constraint is the 'Task' isn't yet created.Any ideas? &#x1f605Ross

Hi everyone,I love the Airtable interfaces and am interested in using the new dashboard interface layout (as opposed to using the legacy charts on a blank layout, which is what I currently do).However, one very critical element of the dashboard interface layout is missing: I am not able to locate any way for a user to filter the data by a custom date range. Sure, I can use pre-set filters for general date ranges (this year, this month, any other range I choose as the person building the dashboard) but the purpose of seeing our data on a dashboard is to be able to answer questions like "what does the data look like between January 1st and January 4th?" The user needs to be able to filter the data based on the date ranges that are important to them. They should not have to ask the team member in charge of the interface builder to add a tab filter for every single range they want to review and compare all year.Any ideas on how to move forward with this? The dashboard and charts are u

Hey there, I have a problem with the interface form an airtable app i created. When i want to open the 'socials' interface, it doesn't work and it gives an error. I have tried numerous things, but nothing works. I also tried to get help from the airtable support, but they couldn't help me as well. Is there somebody that has experienced the same problem? Thanks in advance 

I've build out an Airtable database that's working well but I'm getting stuck on what to use as a frontend. It's an internal lease management tool that needs to have a client login.We need the ability to have user permissions, an easy to read dashboard that looks nice, the ability to update records and export data.It also ideally should be a tool that does not have a steep learning curve.I started using Softr but then saw that the dashboard elements are only available on the professional plan ($139 a month) which is more than we want to pay right now. I tried Noloco which was great but the dashboard elements didn't present the information the way we needed it and the aesthetics weren't what we wanted.I would be so grateful for any ideas on what is the way to go.Thanks!

I have some items pulling into an interface.  I have 3 three fields.  Priority , User, and a description.  Is there a way to increase size of the user field to show full name versus truncating? I have hidden name but you can see that top one truncated and if there are two leads you only see the first one unless to expand to see all details?

I have a Single Select field field that I want to allow users to be able to add new options too when they are in Create Form interface. Since this is not possible, are there any workarounds/alternative designs that anyone has used?My thoughts:1. Using Linked Record is also not possible, since it doesn't allow new record creation from the Create Form interface. 2. Using a text field and then automating creation of the option in Single select also is not possible since I believe it doesn't allow update of the Single Select options through "Run Script" in automation?

Hi everyone,We're building a decision-making tool. This tool has tables for Topics, Participants, and Positions – each participant takes a position ('Go', 'No-go', or 'I don't know') on a topic. Each position type is matched with a numerical value: 1 for 'Go', -1 for 'No-go', 0 for 'I don't know'.In the pivot table below, we'd like to display the participant's position in each cell instead of his/her position's numerical value. Do you guys have an idea of how to get this done?Thanks! 

Hi everyone,Please help me, i deleted by mistake an interface, where can i retrieve it?? why can't i see it in the trash ?A million thanks  

HiI'm really, really trying to love interface forms and the design is much improved but is it really the case that you cannot prefill linked record in the form? I've tried with Recordid and with the name and it doesn't work. Other fields are fine (that I have tried) but not linked records. I believe its also the case that users need access to the base to submit if its being used as an internal form. Can anyone confirm these, are there work arounds. I'm having to abandon them for now and build with old forms 😞  Cheers Jason    

Hey all! I'm running into an issue when building a form. I am trying to build a publicly accessible form through Interfaces that also includes population through record linking. For context, this is a form that clients can use to order supplies from an organization. My ideal workflow for this would be; the client selects their Record ID in a linking field, and once they do, an automation pre-fills the form with their usual order. They can then edit it if there's something they would like to add or remove.  I've built the automation, and I've built the form - but now how do I get them to work together? Is this feature not possible? Looking for straightforward solutions before I go down a rabbithole! Thank you in advance for your time and help!

Hello, I have the need for a "staging" environment for interfaces. By that, I mean it would be valuable for me if I could "disconnect" the interface from the underlying data when needed. The idea is to avoid having users see intermediate states of the database while it is being updated. While the read-only interface is "disconnected", users can only see the data just before the disconnection and would see the new state once the interface owner re-engage the connection.

I have an order table which contains all of the records of an order. I want to get order confirmation from my customers for their order.I am creating their order by using another form in my order table. Then, I want to visulize these datas, put a button under it (which is confirmation button) then send the link to my customer to see order details, order summary and to get their confirmation via that button.Is that possible? Or how can i do it?

In our Interfaces, we rely a lot on our 'Record Detail' layouts, as this is where we display everything about a project, as I'm sure most users do.We have our data in groups, but it would be great (and seems fairly universal) if there was a clean way to be able to collapse and expand these Groups like an accordion in order to clean up the overall layout, especially when we are displaying lists of tasks, project milesotnes, etc. on one page.Thoughts / Workarounds?Note: We do have conditional groups depending on project types, things hide and show, but I mean a physical way to click to collapse groups into stacks or similar.Cheers!

In attempting to learn how to use this new Beta feature, I’ve created a bunch of test interfaces that I’d now like to get rid of, but how? For the likes of me, I just cannot find where it’s possible to delete an interface. Thanks in advance to anyone who might help. If it’s not possible yet, then please consider this to be a bug or feature request instead.

Hi, I’m trying to share a developped interface with other users in my organization, they receive the link by email by they are invited to login. For information i’m in the Pro panel with only one user. Can someone help me please. Regard’s Amine

HI folks, trying to create a record review and dash board in interfaces. I am in editable mode. However I cannot add, change, move or colour elements. The '+' sign at the bottom left corner of the screen does not appear so I cannot even create new elements.  I am an 'owner' of the base so I should be able design and edit interfaces. Any signposts or advice would be greatly appreciated. 

Hello! On the grid view, users are normally able to add new options to a multiple select field. However, when I try to do this on a form, I can only select from existing options. Is there any way to get around this?  

Hi there, I'm on a business plan using interfaces as a ticketing system with multiple external parties. Each external party has an interface with a unique filter condition and are given read-only access. I want them to be able to view the comments too - is there any way I can do this? I've enabled record-level details such that when they click on each row, the individual record shows. however, it doesnt allow me to configure this record-level view with Comments/Activity feed element. All I'm seeing are the Fields, and two other options: Chart and Number. 

I am setting up a KPI tracking sheet for our business but I'm stuck on how to create the layout for data input. Situation: I have KPI's I want to track on a yearly /quarterly / monthly / weekly base --> so each KPI has need of different columns for data input (months / weeks / ...), how can I make a clear overview? Or should i make different tabs depending on the date range for input?Also some KPI's are numbers, some are percentages,.. so i cannot make 1 column for data input. Should i make different columns fe 'KPI number' , 'KPI percentage' and then leave open some columns which are not relevant? I feel there are better options but I just recently started using Airtable so would love to hear from some more experienced users 🙂

Hello, I have an interface that generates data based on individual users' data. When I share this, the link looks like:https://airtable.com/(appID)/(interfaceID)I want to use URL filtering to display the data for a specific user in the Airtable based on their email. The user's email can be found in a list of users called "Students," the field for their email is called "Email." Below is an example of how I think this is supposed to work, but it displays no data as if it is not fetching the correct user.https://airtable.com/(appID)/(interfaceID )?filterByFormula={Email}="{user's email}"

Hello All!New to Airtable but loving it so far!I created a CRM for my company, and also created several interfaces for employees to use the CRM. Everyone uses the interfaces on the Airtable mobile app on their iphone.One of the interfaces is a Referral Log, that allows users to add client referrals, comment, and keep track of them. Every employee has full access to this Referral Log interface, and can edit, create, etc.I have built everything to be seamless, and it is perfect so far - save for one issue:When a user comments on a Referral, or uses the @ symbol to add someone to the thread - they receive a notification that someone commented or mentioned them. This notification exists in the "notifications" menu in the apps base menus. However when you click into the notification a message appears "This page is not supported on mobile. Go to Desktop view." - the annoying part is you can easily just go to the record you were mentioned in and view the comment there, so the page is totally
