Just wondering if this is a bug or is intended.

If not a bug, how would I go about fixing the issue?

Hey there—thanks for surfacing this! I can confirm that the absence of bulk editing is currently expected behavior for interface-only collaborators. This is an area of improvement that we're considering down the line, though for now,  solutions include adding users to the underlying base where possible, or introducing automations-based workflows with the help of a button element (e.g., find records + a repeating group fitted with an update records step). Hoping this can help to clarify things a bit!

hi, i used to be able copy and paste into multiple records at once in an airtable interface. this has stopped working as of today. is this a bug or intended?

I recently ran into this same issue. I designed a series of interfaces and configured them to be editable for this specific purpose, and after the weekend, anytime I try to copy and paste multiple cells into a grid in an interface I receive the following message: "Sorry, pasting multiple cells is not supported in linked record grids". 

This makes me a very sad panda.

What kind of a solution is this?

REALLY? Copy / paste doesn't work in a Grid-based interface?
Guys we need a tool that WORKS here.

Please prioritize getting this in ASAP.
We've been loyal Airtable users for years but the Interfaces product has been pushing us off to competing solutions (ie: Retool – https://retool.com) at every step of the way.
