Interface Designer

 Is there a way/hack to select the same object multiple times in multiple-select? I'm collecting information about tickets and some individuals' have multiple tickets of the same type. Thanks!

Hi all,I'm building a List InterfaceIn that list, I have enabled the "Edit records inline" setting. Now, all fields, even the ones that have been locked in the underlying Base, are editable from the interface. How do I keep the locked fields locked in the interface?

When I create a LIST in INTERFACE and I mark the options "Edit records inline" and "Add/delete records inline" I can add RECORDS from the computer.But when I log into the app from my cell phone, I can't add a RECORD.Is it possible to add RECORD also from the app on the cell phone?

Hello,I have shared 3 interfaces with a collaborator and have given them editor permissions. They are able to acces one of the 3 interfaces. When they try to access the other 2 interfaces they get a notification which says 'You are not authorized to view this page'.I am pretty sure that I followed the same procedure to share the interfaces and I don't think I have set any restrictions for who can see the interfaces. M is only able to view the Equipment & FAcilities Maintenance even though they have editor permission on all the interfaces.M has access to the interfaces on the desktop and they work perfectly for the permissions I have set. This issue only occurs on the mobile app on a tablet.Does anyone know what might be going on?Thanks!

Let me start by saying that I have been trying to do this in Interfaces but I've also had a look at the new Forms feature.What I would really like to do is present the user with a grid with 4 columns: MakeLineModel Qty    When the user clicks in the blank line under Make, they get a drop-down that lists all the current values in the Make field (unique values). Then they do the same for Line and Model, based on the selection under Make - i.e. a decreasing filtered list. They then manually enter a qty. They can then add more rows as they complete the 'form'.Ideally they would also be able to have the option to ignore the drop down selection and enter a value in any column that doesn't already

Hi,In the form Interface when I want to select a value from another table (linked record) I only see the name of the first column.How can I see more data on this field?Attached a picture for illustration:  

Hey,I want to help my father's business and automate it to be more efficient and save him time.The problem is that he is not technological at all and he gets a bit complicated and I am afraid that he will destroy or enter wrong data (enter empty records or accidentally click on things).I wanted to ask you how you would deal with it?I thought maybe creating forms to create customers, a form to edit the details of the customers, etc.is this a good idea?I would love to hear from you how you would behave.Thanks

So, I love the fact that I can finally share interfaces and embed them into our services. This has finally given me the use case for them. First snag I have found though is that when I have a drop down, for some reason one of them keeps changing the sort for the records and I don't know what I am doing wrong. The dropdown is filtering a linked field. When I select the dropdown on the interface designer, it is in alphabetical orderWhen I select the dropdown post publishing, it is in alphabetical orderWhen I select the dropdown on the embed or make larger link, it is chaosIs there a way for me to fix the sorting of the dropdown item? I show the perfect drop down and the less that perfect one in the attachements. 

Hi,I have a table of projects which is being imported in. Each project has a project ID column, and a Project Parent ID column, since there are sub projects. I want to simply create a list which shows each parent project, followed by all of the sub projects. Nested Linked Records seems to only allow me to do this in reverse. Is there any other way I can do it. I can't really change the structure of the data, since it's being imported in from an API.Thanks! 

I have a user that can't click an interface button which runs an automation. The automation primarily updates a field that is not visible through the interface. My user, who has access to the interface but not the underlying base, is unable to click this button. It is greyed out. Unfortunately I didn't get to see the error message you get when you hover over the button because another user 'helped' them and moved the workflow along.Is it the current expected behaviour that a user with interface only access can't run an automation that changes the base? Or is there something else going on here?

Interface designer pages can now be shared publicly. 😁😁😁 This feature is still in beta, and comes with a warning that some hidden data may be exposed.An example that Airtable gave in the docs explains that even if a chart in an interface page shows only combined values, it is possible that individuals could find the specific numbers behind those totals by examining network logs."Consider the dashboard below that shows data for 28 deals in the pipeline. The chart shows the sum

Hi!I'm trying to display two lines (series of values) in one line chart.Data goes like:Date / Value 1 / Value 21-1-2024 / 24 / 201-1-2024 / 34 / 201-2-2024 / 40 / 211-3-2024 / 52 / 21 So one line displaying 24,34,40 and 52 and another line in the same chart displaying 20, 20, 21, 21 (for same period (X-axis).Is this possible in interfaces? Or is there another way to achieve something like this?

Hi Airtable Community!When I create line charts in Interface designer and group data by some criterion, the values ​​are not visualized the same way as if I did not group the records. (Related chart setting enabled)Please help.

How can I display a ratio between two values in interface (dashboard)?I have the field "hours" in a base.In the dashboard I want to display the number of hours last week divided in a static number.Like:All records from last week.Total amount of hours from those records.Divided in 8.Plot this on a chart so I can see progress over time. I'm OK to go through a new table in the base to solve the problem

Morning.We have a request that seems pretty common but searching the articles the info is a bit conflicting, so asking a fresh question.We have a base with data that we work with.  Think of it like a CRM.What I need is a way to set a view of data (state based) so that a user can only see the cases they are working on. That is pretty easy with a view etc. I also only want those users to only see certain fields from those people to not be able to edit the view or configuration of those fields. Except 2 fields which they are allowed to do a drop down on. Reason is basically to stop users from deleting or changing important data, or viewing other peoples data. Thats the main request. A lock down view for our users that they cant download, change, print, copy. they can only view . . except 2 fields that they can toggle. (our users are very basic).Second part of that, is I want them to have the ability to run one automation

Is there anyway to do a sum of averages within a selection using the number boxes?Bottom grey number on the left is what I'm trying to tweak.  Over the last 12 months, I've sold 663 units for a total of $4,107,840 (bottom two green #'s).  I need to sell 118 more (top grey #).  Ideally, I want that bottom grey box to not show me the average per, but a sum total of the averages.  So $4,107,840/663 = 6196 * 118 = $731,128.  Any one have an idea on how to get there?I thought maybe build that value into the base itself somehow, but I'm having trouble running sums within the individual records so they all return the 6196 value in real time (or close to it)...

Is it possible to limit the options for a single select field in an interface form? i can definitely do this in a regular airtable form. but i can't seem to figure out the way to do this in an interface form.example: single select fieldOption 1Option 2Option 3Can i make the interface form only offer them the choice of Option 1? or only Option 1 & Option 2, but not display Option 3 as a choice?

Inside the Interface Designer, I've tried many ways to get this Record List from the Project Tracker template, but could not find a way. How do I get this? I have tried creating Record Review, but the behaviour is somewhat different. I tried creating from blank but the only option available is Record Picker. Appreciate your help and expertise. Thank you in advance. 

I’m curious if there are any plans to add conditionally shown fields to Interfaces, similar to what is possible in form view? For example, if you’re tracking network outages you might use one field to specify that the cause is a power outage, in which case you would want other fields to appear that let you specify when the power outage started and ended (so you can track UPS runtime when the power goes out, and site recovery time when it comes back.)

I’ve been trying to delete a published interface but can’t find where to delete it. I opened the interface and looked for a delete button but couldn’t find one. I exited the interface and went to my workspace to see all of the bases and interfaces I have, but I couldn’t find an option to delete it there. Thank you in advance.

Hi, I'm playing with the interfaces and I have a question. Is there any way I can share an interface with a person that hasn't an Airtable account?I don't want to add them as collaborators, because they should see only that interface (not the base) and I don't want to ask them to create an Airtable account just to see my interface. My final goal is sharing the interface link with an automation through email. Is there any way? Thank you!

I've created a pivot table in a dashboard interface and I'm trying to summarize cost for projects. Each record is a deliverable which has a corresponding "Brief" that it's tagged to. Each deliverable also has a cost associated with it. Both "Brief" and "Cost" fields are lookups from another table.The pivot table:Rows: BriefColumns: Deliverable TypeSummarize by: FieldField: CostSummary type: SumUnfortunately, the pivot table just shows up completely empty. I created the same pivot table as an extension and that worked perfectly. I can't seem to figure this one out.Also, the Cost field is set as "currency" in the lookup table, if that's important.

Hello Airtable Community, I have a timeline display and group on three levels (market, category, linked event)For some entries, there is no linked event. However, it is very important that it is also displayed for the entries with linked events.Can I somehow prevent the entries without links from always showing (empty)?Thank youMirko   

Currently when viewing a record's details in an interface, Grid/List visualizations can be used to view the record's "linked records", however these visualizations cannot be used on the record itself.I.e, if I have a Customer record with Order linked records, I can view the Orders in Grid/List visualization, however, I cannot view the Customer record itself in a Grid/List on that same page.What I would like to do is to show some of the Customer's fields in Grid/List view. When there are many fields this allows to show selected fields in a neat one-row view. (Rather than having each field one after the other vertically).Currently my workaround is to create a new linked record field where I link the record to itself, but it would be great if this could be done without this workaround.

I’m really excited about the new interface designer features. Airtable has given us the tools to build functional apps without getting people too deep into the database side. Unfortunately I can’t quite fully embrace it yet – it seems like the interfaces don’t work at all on iPhones. Moreover the degradation is pretty un-graceful, users just get a message to login or use the app with little or no explanation of what went wrong and how they could fix it. Our folks – especially some key stakeholders – are on iPhones more than any other platform, making this an important thing to solve for here. Does anyone have any ideas about how to deal with this? Does anyone know what Airtable’s roadmap is? Would love to leverage the features if I can figure out how to manage this challenge.
