Hello! I’m Ayesha, a Product Manager here at Airtable. We’re so excited to share an improvement to interfaces that will let you share some page types publicly in a read-only format. You can share a link to these pages or embed them in other websites.
What are publicly shared interface pages?
Most interface pages can now be publicly shared and can be accessed by a non-Airtable user without being logged in. These pages are read-only and your audience will be able to filter, sort, search, and expand details on your page.
How do you create a publicly shared page?
After you have published one of the supported page types, the share dialog will feature a new “Share Publicly” tab. Turning on the switch will enable public sharing using a unique link that is generated when the toggle is turned on.
What does a public page look like?
You can check out a real example at https://www.airtable.com/whatsnew!
We’ve embedded a public interface page that shows our recent launches.
Other common questions:
What page types are not supported for public sharing?
- Any pages made from the Blank layout option
- Record summary
- Record Review
- Dashboards created before February 2024
- Form layouts within Interfaces
- Legacy record detail layouts
What controls can I set for who can access an interface?
- Similar to Shared Views, you can set a password or restrict access to your link to a specific domain.
- Enterprise Scale admins have the ability to turn off public sharing for their org, in addition to enforcing additional domain or password restrictions.
How can my audience comment or edit data on my interface page?
- Public pages do not support editing. They will need to be given access and open the full version of the app in Airtable to edit.

We’re looking forward to hearing what you think, please let us know if you have any questions.
We’ve been testing this out in a beta state over the last month and really appreciate all the feedback! If you’re an enterprise customer, please reach out to your account manager with any questions.
