Airtable Schema Mapping Tool

Hey ​@Freddie_Lawson,

Thanks for sharing! I’d love if we could:

1. Include Headers, text, sticky notes or similar.
2. Have múltiple versions of the schema.

What I mean: when building documentation I cannot rely on Airtable’s base schema extension as I need to include text for describing the schema, and also I only get one version of the schema. So if I want to show first one aspect of the system (eg. Relation between Contacts and interactions), and in a separate page or section of the can as a different aspect (eg. Products and orders), even if everything corresponds to the same base, I cannot do that. 
 

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the feedback ​@Mike_AutomaticN ! 

Was it clear to you that can you deselect tables like the below, to show only a subset of your schema? If I added a simple PNG export CTA (with file naming) would that be helpful to your need re; annotation?
 

Hey ​@Freddie_Lawson!

I did notice that I could hide tables. And yes! PNG download would be good enough!

Nice setup, it can be really frustrating when trying to visualize where all of the connections and dependencies are within Airtable.  This can really help know where everything is going and give better visuals at where connections between data belong.

Hey ​@Freddie_Lawson,

I see I can see how many fields each table has.. but is it possible to actually show the fields on the canvas? And ideally only show/hide certain fields? (note that this is different to the field list tab)

 

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