Preview "Eye" No Longer Option

[ethang]

In a calendar view, I used to have the ability to click an eye to preview the calendar view AND share externally. 

Now when I go to the calendar view its not an option which is preventing me from getting a link to share externally

Example of the eye

That icon would have been FormView only.

Using the view share menu in Airtable

Thanks Sho! I can't seem to replicate these links that we share externally in this form?

Following the directions which I've done in the past it creates a link but the link is FAR longer in length than previous URLs. Do you know why that might be?

Since the Interfaces was introduced, as I recall, the URL specification for Airtable has changed.
The old URL is currently available, but may eventually become unavailable.

"https://airtable.com/app~" is the ID of Base.
You can press Copy Link in the second screenshot to get the minimum URL required.

If you want to specify date or mode options, you need a long URL.

Good to know they changed the link protocol

Tried hacking the link but to the logged out user (all of our users) it blocks them. Going to get all set up with Bitly

Thanks for your replies Sho! Kudos!
