Alright, I've watched all the YouTube videos I can, and have looked in here for help and I'm still stuck.

Problem I'm Trying to Solve

  • As an interior designer/home stager
  • I want a "shopping" page of available inventory
  • So that I can click a button and select and item for a job

I have a grid set up, which includes all the inventory we own for staging homes. I also have a gallery view of that table. What I want to be able to do is have one of our non-technical interior designers come to the gallery and see only the available/in-stock items, I haven't tried tackling that part yet, but it seems easy enough. 

The part I'm stuck on is I want them to be able to click a button and add it to an order or "shopping cart" if you will. They can just scroll through, click a button for the items they want and in the end, end up with a list of all the inventory items we need to pull to stage a home. Is this possible?

Right after I posted, I noticed a similar question here: https://community.airtable.com/t5/base-design/setting-up-a-shopping-cart-type-system/td-p/193505 

I'll look through that and see if there are any suggestions that match what I am looking for

Yeah setting up an Interface for this would be your best bet.  Happy to try to help if you get stuck anywhere!

I didn't even notice the interface feature until last night (I'm new to Airtable). I'll plug away at that. Thanks!
