Folks

I have created a database with several peoples details. On it, I have also created a view which will take a filter text like this:

https://airtable.com/VIEWLINK?filter_FIELD=FIRSTNAME%20LASTNAME

and then send it to the specific FIRSTNAME/LASTNAME person, who does not have any airtable account as a normal shareable link, so they can access their data.

The problem I am facing with is that as the controls of the view are available, the view can be filtered with different values and people can see each others details.

I see that on the EMBED version of the view, I have the option "viewControls", but it does not work if I use it on a normal share view.

Is there a way to prevent a view to be re-filtered? Or to prevent the controls to be available?

Thanks in advance

Alfredo Rodrigues

Hey Alfredo, you might be able to achieve this by using an interface that filters the records to "Current User."
