Airtable,

Please consider adding tabs/pages to the Record review area. There are workflows were you do not want to be scrolling up and down. Tabs would allow “pages” for other fields, text descriptions, etc. This would be similar to using the Description app.

Thanks,
Jonathan

You can currently do this by creating a new interface page for each tab, and using button fields for navigation. The button field use the “open url” action and the formula combines the url for the interface page with a query parameter that sets the record id for the record selector.

Of course, it would be nice if there were an easier way to create these layouts and the corresponding navigation.

You could do something similar to this in On2Air Amplify with the record layout dashboard. You can create various block sections, then display/hide specific fields in each one. You can then browse through each record with the arrow at the top.

If you want to go further, you could then create multiple layouts for specific areas you need - example: a documents only layout, an interactions layout.

Airtable - Here is another idea for tabs/pages that I have seen in other CRMs for workflows. This would be easier for the user to work through the flow rather than using the dropdown menu.

Thanks,
Jonathan

This is a great idea! Are you able to show how we would pass the query parameter to select the record?
