Remove duplicates in look up field

[Mathias_Elmose]

I’m a big fan of look-ups but I would really like to be able to remove records the occur more than one time. Is there a way to do that?

[David_Krizan]

It IS a workaround, but it’s not very scalable, as creating 3 additional fields and an automation for what is essentially a field-level filter is not a particularly elegant solution. And then good luck trying to explain that workflow to a non-experienced user. The simplest solution is to not make users think or create a Rube Goldberg machine to do something that really should be a no-brainer.

And this also goes for linked records on the same table. Please give us a simple switch to allow the linkage to apply to both records. For example, if I have a Software table and have a same-table linked record field called Integrations, if I use this field to link Airtable to Zapier, I’d want an option (at the field-level) to make this a two-way linkage so that Zapier is also linked to Airtable in this instance.

+1 really need this feature…

Here to join the party, I’ve also just come across this need. Trying to organise references and research for individual animal species, but view easily overall content within their families.
Having this feature would be the final puzzle piece.

[Steven_Benders]

+1 to this feature too.

[Jonathan_Slavut]

+1 to the above, this is a sorely needed filter

+100000 to the above… been waiting for this for a loooong while.

[Laure_Aimoz]

+1 to this feature too.

[Jayna_Fey]

+1 to this feature - very much needed.

[Taylor_Johnson1]

+1 this would solve a lot of issues and prevent the need to use hacky workarounds that aren’t scalable

[Workshop_Team]

Adding my +1. This feature prevents our organization from really using this as it would be integral to a lot of the tables we would need to create. The current workaround is not feasible at scale.
