Hi!

I just created a form using the newer form builder for the staff to use to submit expense reports, reimbursement requests, etc. All staff have editor permission on our "Expenses" base, where the form populates to. When the staff opens the form, there are buttons along the top of the form that allows them to navigate home, edit the form, or view the data (see picture attached).

Is it possible to remove these buttons without changing the staff permission levels? They still need to have editor-level permissions so they can engage with the base in other contexts, but I don't want people to be able to easily or unintentionally change the form or edit the data.

Hello,

I do not know how to hide these options when a form is created as you did, maybe someone will give you a better answer.

But, if you create the form within an interface (that may only contain that form), these options are not displayed:

To do that, start buy creating an interface and add a form:

Thanks, I appreciate the suggestion. However, the forms I can build within the context of the interface designer do not have all of the design components I need like titles and descriptions of sections, etc. Additionally, the staff is already familiar with the interface of this base since I use it for other use cases, and I don't want them to get wires crossed. 

Very clear, sorry that I could no help on that matter

Might want to open a support ticket directly to see if they've got any suggestions on how to turn those off?  I tried looking for this too and it doesn't seem like they let us do that

A very cludgy possibility would be to put this form in another base they don't have the acess to and then sync the data back over?  Might want to explore something like Fillout.com too as it has pretty flexible design functionality that might suit your needs, but the downside would be the staff won't be familiar with it like you said

Thanks for the reply, and I will submit a ticket. 

Hi there!

At miniExtensions, we've created a third-party form designed specifically to integrate with Airtable. It allows you to use custom field titles, add descriptions with images, URLs, and formatted text, and create sections that can be displayed as a multi-page form.

Our form doesn’t require users to have an Airtable account and supports unlimited end-users, so you can share it freely without risking changes to your data.
