Designing a Form in which I need a user to be able to select an Item from dropdown menu representing a Linked Record field, and then be shown what that Item looks like via Lookup of an Attachment field in the linked table, I’m shown an alert: “This field is read-only and won’t be displayed in the form”.


The use case is straightforward though, and high-value: Forms that can allow user to see what to vote for. It’s available in rival products. When can I expect it in Airtable Forms?

The Airtable team rarely pays attention to our posts in these forums, so you should definitely submit this feature request to support@airtable.com. It’s a great idea.


In the meantime, there are only 2 solutions that I know of which give you the ability of adding lookup fields to a form:




  1. The combination of JotForm + On2Air Forms.




  2. MiniExtensions.




Or using Fillout 😊
