Hey hey!!

A very simple, yet really really nice, feature got released without too much promotion/announcement (unless I missed something): Collapsible Groups for Interfaces!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

This was not published on Airtable’s What’s New page
 



Just wanted to share this here :D.

Maybe this has been out for some time now? I just get to see it.


I don’t see that on my end. What page are you on? And what type of groups does it collapse? On my grid interface page, groups are already collapsible.

@ScottWorld record review, or record detail for example. Make sure to select the page itself, not a section within it. Oh my bad, I meant collapsible SECTIONS, not groups :D

Oh wow, I see it!

That’s definitely new… and very cool!

They should really release changelogs of all the changes they make to Airtable.


Always funny what makes it into What’s New and what doesn’t. I saw this tipped off on the  ̶B̶o̶A̶ ̶s̶l̶a̶c̶k̶ (EDIT: It was r/Airtable) but hadn’t played with it yet. One quick note is that your default group doesn’t seem to be collapsible, so to take advantage of this you want to be splitting content in other groups. 


Woohoooooooo!! I love it!!! that absolutely users will love it. Thanks Airtable!


Thank you so much, Mike.

 

I just started porting to AT a few weeks ago under the Team plan, but then paused. Collapsible Groups is a big deal and standard most everywhere else. I couldn’t understand why AT didn’t have this. This is a much needed feature and I’m very happy about this!


Am I crazy or is this not available any more?

I don’t seem to find it!!!!!
 

Completely different matter, but would love to have you join our Airtable Hackathon! Make sure to sign up!!

You might be crazy! 🤪

I still have it. You have to open up a record detail view in order to find it.

I might be crazy either way! But in this case I’m 99% sure this is not there anymore for me!!

Super strange!


Maybe you upset the Airtable Gods!! 😹

They must have figured out that I sometimes do some math calculations on google sheets when no one is watching. 😅


I think you just figured it out. 😜
