I want to display a field taken from one of my records from my fillout form but I want to make it uneditable. I am using the form to update already made records but I want to display a field but make it uneditable. Is there a way to do this?
+31Try using a "Pararaph" element and typing "@". This will allow you to pull references like so:
Displaying fields from records in Airtable requires a linked record field so that Fillout knows where to pull data from
+35When using Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable, you can choose any of the “display elements” from the left margin and then type the @ symbol to display fields from your Airtable base as view-only (i.e. uneditable).
However, unlike what Adam posted above, you do not need to have a linked record field to do this.
Since you are using Fillout to update Airtable records from a form, Fillout already knows which record to pull your data from, so you can just type the @ symbol and pick the field that you would like to display on your form.
Hope this helps!
