Interface Designer

I want to be able to see more information for my events in the calendar interface, similar to Notion and/or Clickup. Airtable only allowing me to show everything on a single line makes it really messy - I want to be able to see it as multi-line. Putting it all as labels is insanely messy. Hoping that someone has a possible solution for this - is there a place where I can put in a feature request? This seems like something that exists on most scheduling apps I’ve seen, really disappointed to not have it in Airtable.

I'm using the new Form Builder to create a form to share publicly. I published the form, and created a link for "Anyone on the web."  However, if anyone tries to submit the form without being logged into AirTable, they get the following message, and the form never submits. Any ideas or workarounds?: Refresh page to submit formThis form has been updated. Refresh the page to submit your form. Any information you already entered will be saved, but not submitted. 

Hi all,This has been asked before, but the previous topic didn't get any replies:  We’re encountering the same issue: the record revision history looks different when viewed from the Data side versus the Interface side. Is this a bug, or is there an underlying logic we might be missing? DataInterface 

I can’t believe I couldn’t find an entry about this in this forum yet. Hmm ok, here’s my problem:  Every time I open Interfaces it goes straight into the editor and I have to click launch to use it. For me (main administrator and builder) it is annoying but works. Now my user back from holiday wanted to access and couldn’t. It gives a message that says to click on launch or ask the owner. No launch button though. I opened the interface on my side, had to click launch again did so and she could get in. This obviously is quite an annoying and NOT acceptable behavior. I have no idea where and how to change this behavior?Please help  

I am building a base for our clients. Goal is to have them access their data through a portal. They will want to print professionally formatted reports with our company logo and page breaks. Are the print options in portals the same as interfaces? If so,  this will not fit our needs. Would you suggest we use a 3rd party such as Documint?

I'm curious about this new Portals feature and where it is going. Is anyone using Portals? What is your experience?- vs. existing third party portal app (e.g. Softer, Glide, Noloco)- Mobile availability- Setting permissions and inviting users (e.g. partners, vendors)- Price/value- Sharing interfaces already used internally as portals vs. creating dedicated interfaces- Collaborating with portal users via comments

I would like to send out an email through automation and share a link to a specific record in an Interface. Is this possible? Regards, Ruchika

Hi everyone! I'm trying to create automations such as emails and Slack messages to send reminders to my team to update certain projects (records) in a project management interface. When we were using data mode, I simply linked to the Record URL in the body of the message in the automation. Is there a way to link to a specific project/record in the record review layout? Or perhaps in the record summary layout?Here's a link to the video I sent to customer support. I haven't heard back from them and they suggested posting here. https://www.loom.com/share/d6166031e85e47afaf7e1311866f7b88thanks! Megan

I have a view on an interface for a large database of plays that I want to group by their playwrights. I have added in a user action that allows this to happen. However I have to click ‘Group’ and select ‘Group by Writer’ every time I open the interface. Is there any way to ‘lock’ this grouping so that the plays are grouped in this way every time I open the database? The first picture is how I’d like the database to open and the second is how it does open (where I then have to manually group them).Grouped Airtable Ungrouped Airtable​​​​​  

Hello!In the interface, I have a kanban section with some cards where 4 fields shows, aside from the name of the cards. Now my problem is that those fields also show their title.So at the moment it look like this:Garry’s PubTypeCADAddress157 Rue de VilléCityMontréalBut I want it to look like this:Garry’s PubCAD157 Rue de VilléMontréalAnd I cannot find the option to hide the field titles anywhere.Anybody with better luck than me here? 

Trying to find a solution to always show every month in a range. Pivot tables don’t provide any customization for this, so I am trying to reimagine data in a dashboard/interface bar chart. There is an option to show empty records, but as you can see its still skipping months. This is a single select field, with every month as an option. I want to see months that are missing any selections. I’ve also tried it with a date field updated to bucket by month, but still same issue. What am I missing?

Hi all Does anyone know if Airtable has considered other options for date pickers?Currently it doesn’t allow for choosing years (which you usually can on typical date picker forms). So unless you use your keyboard, it’s not practical to move to other years or even months ahead. Looking forward to your thoughts. Soeren

I have been working on a few bases an just want a steer on best practice re conditional logic on forms for Interface users.So for example if I have two record pickers on the form, one is to select Client, then there is one to select a project, I only want to see Projects relating to the client that I have chosen aboveIt seems that I can’t really do this with a native Airtable form, but I have been able to do it with Fillout forms, which is great for forms being used by external users, such as customers.My question is how do people provide this functionality to internal interface users?  Do you have to link out to the Fillout form from the interface or can it be embedded within the interface in some way.  I am on a Team plan. Thanks  

Hello,We run a residential real estate sales business and have our office lead interface set up with the “current user” permission level. We’re encountering an issue where users in teams (e.g., lead agents, co-agents, and admins) can’t view and manage leads assigned to other team members, even though it's relevant to all parties involved.For example, we assign leads to the main sales agent, but if the agent is out of the office, we want to allow their co-agent or admin to view and accept the lead on their behalf. The team members currently get notified of new leads via and automation where they are cc’d into an email, but they currently can’t access, accept or manage the lead in the agent's interface as its only visible to the lead agent.Is there a way to set up team-based user permissions, or link team members one another so they can access each other’s data without creating separate interfaces for each agent or team? For reference, we are on the Enterprise Sca

Hi everyone,I’m trying to build a chart in Airtable Interfaces to compare three values for the same category: Budgeted amount Consumed amount Imputed amount Right now, in Interfaces I can only create basic charts (bar, line, pie, donut, scatter), but I haven’t found a way to display these three values together as grouped series in a single chart.Ideally, I’d like to have something like a grouped bar chart or a pivot-style view, where for each budget item I can quickly see the three numbers side by side.Is there any way to do this directly in Interfaces? Or maybe through a workaround (extensions, pivot table, or calculated fields) that can then be brought into the Interface view?Thanks a lot for any tips or examples!

Hey everyone – I’ve been an Airtable user for the past year and overall my experience has been enjoyable!This could totally be my own naiveté from being new to database creation, but I’ve been quite confused over what seems to be a lack of accessible resources for Airtable user-created bases + templates for active users to share with each other.The Universe page, which appears to have been initially meant for that, seems to be almost entirely abandoned and in comparison, other popular platforms have these open-ended community sections with thousands of user-created bases and templates (the majority being free downloads). Any related questions, comments, or if you are able to clarify would be greatly appreciated… thank you! *Additional info: my project’s primary goal is a database collection of beauty brands + cosmetics products. 

Hi, I'm getting an error message when trying to create another forms. I already have 50 forms but need more.Can't find the info.Thank you,

Looking for a solution to display Airtable data in full RTL (Right-to-Left) layoutHi everyone,  I'm looking for a website or tool that can display Airtable data in a full RTL format — not just aligning the text to the right, but also reversing the column order, so the layout is fully suitable for RTL languages like Hebrew or Arabic.  Does anyone know of a platform or workaround that supports this kind of RTL presentation?  Thanks in advance!

I have an interface set up showing our contacts and associated interactions with them. There are two levels of hierarchy. At the top (Level 2) is "People" and under that is Level 1 "Interactions". These levels are linked by a common Interactions column. I've enabled the download .csv option.However, the resulting .csv file only reflects the shown information on the "Interactions" level (level 1) and shows none of the info from "People (Level 2). What am I doing wrong?To help illustrate, my Interface List could look like the one outlined below, but in the .csv file, only the info related to interactions will show up (with the correct corresponding column names).^ Person A Name              Person A Email          Interaction Name            Interaction Type            Interaction Date       Interaction N

Hi everyone,I've noticed that in Airtable forms or when entering data into a Linked Record field, there’s currently no native way to copy and paste multiple records at once, or to select multiple records in a single action—other than selecting them one by one.I was wondering if anyone has found a workaround, automation, or clever trick to make this process easier. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,Is there a way that I can create an interface’s record detail page that auto populates the fields and their order, based on that corresponding grid/list? I’m familiar with the various layouts of the record detail pages that can be saved, duplicated, edited, etc. But it would be really helpful if a new record detail page could automatically be created based on that current grid and/or list view, without the builder having to create that new layout every time.Thanks for any tips! 

Hi! I’m building an internal interface for my team to manage tasks. While I love the clean look of Interfaces, it’s frustrating that we can’t manually reorder records (drag-and-drop) within a list or table.In the base view, we can reorder records manually, but in Interfaces we’re stuck with sorting rules or creation order, and new records always go to the bottom.For teams using Interfaces to manage workflows (without exposing the full base), this feature would be incredibly helpful.Are there any plans to enable manual ordering or drag-and-drop within Interfaces in the near future?Thanks!

Hi Airtable Community,I’m trying to use the prefill feature in Airtable for a form, but I’m running into an issue. I want to prefill a field that is a record selector, but the selector has a filter applied. When the filter is active, the prefill doesn’t seem to work as expected.Has anyone found a way to prefill a filtered record selector in a form, or any workarounds for this limitation? Any advice or examples would be really appreciated!Thanks in advance!Nico 

The user field options on our interface incorrectly display all previous accounts, even those that have been removed. This issue only affects the interface, not the data view. How can we resolve this.
