Interface Designer

I'm hoping this has an easy fix because it's a pretty simple use case! I have a table where each record is a task. Each task may have multiple contributors. I have a field that indicates the month the task will be completed as well as a field that shows who the key contributors are (Multi-select field). I need to create a view where each contributor can see all the tasks they are to work on, further broken down by month. The problem is that using the grouping feature, there doesn't seem to be a way to have a single records included in multiple groups. For example, if Sally and Roger are both contributors on a Task 1 in September, I'd need that task to be included in Sally's list as well as Roger's list and NOT in an aggregated grouping called "Sally and Roger". How can I accomplish this? (my desired break down is below). Thanks for any ideas!Sally's tasks:SeptemberTask 1Task 3Task 5October

My wife and I run a dog grooming business. When we set up appointments we associate a dog with the appointment. When we are selecting the dog, is it possible to have additional information below the dog name in the bubble? Namely, the customer name?Here is a picture that should clarify what I am getting at.Thank you for any assistance.

The new configurable “Record Detail” Interface is a fantastic and long awaited feature in my book.However, its functionality is severely limited by the fact that all Pages within an Interface share the same “Record Detail” Interface for a given table.The Situation:My company has a very complex Airtable Base that we use to manage our Architectural Design Business. The base is structured to revolve around a table we call “Items”. This table has around 120 Fields, of which around 30 need to edited by a user at some point during a project.The nature of our work requires us to approach the same “Item” from multiple different phases or perspectives throughout the course of a project. Each one of these phases requires us to interact with a different set of fields from the “Items” Table.A simplified example is below:There is some shared data across all phases, such as Name, Project, Item Code, Room, Status, Etc.Budgeting Phase

Hello folks,I have a record picker, and cannot find a way to fix some letters truncation in the name field on the heading of the details pane.(That field comes from the primary field of the underlying table, 'Seasons')The problem is that the value of the field appears misaligned from the area defined to it. This causes tall letters (see "p" and "g" in the image below) to show truncated. If I have a means to specify the vertical alignment as 'centered' then it would show those letters full.When I enter edit mode and select the name field I get this view:    On the right-side pane the properties of the field are displayed:[Data tab]Source: Seasons (Record list)Field : Name[Appearance tab]Size : drop-down list: Default | LargeLabel

Hello!I am trying to create pie graph, that combines data from mutiple different fields and show them togetherFor example:I want to combine that data and show that Group 1 had 61% of the score and so on. In one graph is there a way to do this?

Hi community,I'd like to give two of the interface collaborators editor-level access.Will I be charged an additional subscription fee?

I published an interface and when I open it in Chrome on an Android smartphone everytime I scroll with my thumb, the detail page opens and makes it impossible to bite the entire list.Records should only open when tapped, not on a swipe!

In my all of my Interfaces  now when I try to add a new linked record, I would click on "Create a new record" and enter the info and click Create button at the bottom BUT instead of showing the Create button it shows Field Deleted?? This is not my field, it is an Airtable button? All my permissions seem correct etc. Also in some of my other interfaces the same  Linked record does not even show "Create a new record" , even though it should be allowing  it. Please help! It does seem to relate to the same table of Contacts where other linked records to other tables do not seem to have the issue.  Also I tried this in 2 different browsers, same issue. See attached screen shot. Thanks!

Hi,The functionality of creating a new ticket is not working as it should. Is anyone else experiencing this error?Thank you

Hi there - I'm creating interfaces for different external users, but some of my field names make more sense internally than externally. I'd like the field names in the interface to be different than what they are in the base. For example, my base has a field called "Load Description HTML", but I'd like that same field to be called "Contains which product?" in the interface. This would be similar to how Form Views allow you to change the field names so they make more sense in the form.Does anyone know if/how this is possible?Thanks,Kelsey

Hi all,I hope you can help:At the moment, he same view in interface designer hides the other fields of a record (please see the attached screenshots) which make them really difficult to find the right lesson when people use compared to the database. Is there a way to add these additional fields to my interface? Many thanks, Alastair

Hi! I'm looking for a way to combine multiple Sync'd Table Views into a single Table.  I feel like this should be relatively easy, but i'm not thinking about the solution properly. I'll explain belowI have 3 Project Teams, and each team has their own AirTable Base for tracking their staff, and a bunch of fields relevant to that.I have a Studio Leadership Base, that has all 3 of these Projects syncing a view upwards so Leadership can see everything combined and create more holistic studio reports.The Leadership Base looks like this:Combined Studio Table   /     Project 1 Sync   / Project 2 Sync   / Project 3 Sync   /I'm a little stumped how to take Project 1, 2, and 3 tables and have all of that information appear in a single view in the Combined Studio Tablethanks in advance!  

this is really irritating. i'm trying to report a bug but the freaking chatbot wants to send me here...anyway:there seems to be a bug: if you access an airtable interface with an account that doesn't have edit permissions and you press ALT + 1 (the shortcut to enter edit mode) airtable throws an error...which looks like buggy behavior to me.you're welcome.  

Hi there,I would like to organise the data based upon each individual user in the linked lookup field on the right hand side. When grouping the data it groups all of the looked up fields together. Is there a way of sorting the data to be per every individual linked user. So each user has a set of this data.Any help would be greatly appreciated,Bart

We would like to create a calendar view, which looks like this:We have the rooms on the left, the date on the top. If there are reservations, we would see the reservations in the specific line for the room.Any ideas? Thanks a lot!Tobi 

Hi, i have an interface, and i added a commenter to my interface, however, when i tag the person who the interface is shared with, that person does not get a notification when they are tagged, is this normal, or am i missing something? The owner of the base gets the comment notifications

Hi all,I want to create an Interface page that helps my team with a recurring task, that involves three tables:Choose a single project, presumably using a record picker ("Projects" table)In a grid or list below, choose multiple records ("media outlets" table) with a check-markUpon clicking a button, an automation creates entries in a third table ("status" table). These entries are linked to the project from step 1 and the selected media outlets from step 2 and also are assigned a certain status (i.e. "new")It sounds simple, but I fail to pass the info from both the record selector and the grid on to the script.Seriously hoping this is doable. I would appreciate any hint as to where I should be looking as I am quite lost at the moment.Thank you!

I have a table of Shows and a table of Contacts. There is a linked record field in Shows so that I can attach a Contact to a Show. When I choose a linked record from the Shows table, the record picker looks like this:I built an interface in Grid format that has the same linked field—adding a Contact to a Show. When I choose a linked record in the interface, the record picker looks like this: My question: Why does the record picker look different when using the same field? Can I get the interface picker to show the linked contact's email address in the picker (so somebody doesn't choose the wrong Contact)?

Hello everyone!I'm new to AirTable but I have 20+ years of experience with SQL, but I'm stuck with the interface design here.I'm helping a friend setting up a project to keep track of orders and AirTable seems to be the perfect place.I have created a "product" table, an "order" table and a junction table "order_product" for the many-to-many relationship between them.Now I need to create a form or an interface to execute the following process:I need a page where I can choose the client for the order and add multiple products with quantityWhen the form is submitted it has to create a new record for the orderWhen the form is submitted it has to create a new record for each product in the order (linking the new order that has been created)Any idea on how to do that? Thank you so much in advance and greetings from Italy! 

Greetings to all,I'm looking for an efficient solution to a problem concerning the organization of my to-do list for different events during the year.We've drawn up a list of tasks (110) to be repeated at each event.I'm facing 2 issues:1 - When I create a list view, I link the tasks with the event; the task remains a single record, so if I validate a task for an event, the task will be validated for ALL events. It doesn't matter what the hierarchy of my list is (or did I misunderstand?).2 - In a previous version with 89 tasks, I was able to get around this issue with record templates. When we decided to take part in an event, the 89 records were created, and then I pressed a button to launch several automations linking the new records to the congress. Not the most refined method, but it worked very well. Problem: record templates are limited to 100 records per base.I'd like to avoid recreating a table for each event to keep a clean

Dear allI'm new here to the community - so thank you for all future help & interaction!I have trouble finding a setting to the buttons in interfaces. In the airtable manual (https://support.airtable.com/docs/interface-element-button) there ist the following description: AppearanceBefore moving on to further interface configuration or publishing your interface, you may want to rename/label the button or change its color to provide more context to collaborators who are interacting within the interface you are building. You can also have the button update colors and/or label after the button has been clicked. I saw this function in the past, but can't find it consistently. Maybe I'm just don't see it or was it removed? I also can't find any thread or comment about this.S

Hello,I am having an unusual experience in Interface Designer's "Checklists" which is causing a problem for me...When I have added a Text Box element to my Interface, and use the "Checklist" function (this is *not* the Airtable field type CheckBox), it's behaving strangely. When I am editing the interface, I can check/uncheck the Checklist. But when I've published it and I'm in the "normal" user view of the Interface, I cannot check/uncheck the Checklist boxes. So, if I "check" a box while editing, and then publish the interface, then the checkbox is stuck in the "checked" status. Likewise, if I "uncheck" a box while editing, and then publish the interface, then the checkbox is stuck in the "unchecked" status. I cannot change it either way from the User View.This is surprising to me. Does anybody know how to get the checklists to be able to check/uncheck when I'm using

I'm clicking on interfaces and start new interface. It brings me to a page that shows me the type of interfaces you can create but there is no button to press. It looks like there is a header text at the top of the page, but I can't even scroll the page up or down. So I tried in a different browser and the same happens. I'm the only creator so it's not an issue with having access. I'm having the same issue in Tools when trying to change permissions in a drop down menu. I can't even scroll through the top one to see the options. The page won't scroll. Any ideas?

Hi!Does anyone know how to remove access to an interface once it's shared? I shared an "editable" interface that I created for my creators with a read-only user so she can't interact with it. I created a read-only version with a form so she could submit information, but now I can't unshare the editable interface. I don't see an option to "remove access" with her account. What gives?I have a Pro account if that helps.
