Trying to build a solution for our staff and a field that is the result of a formula calculation would REALLY be helpful. Currently calculated fields are not included on forms. I think this feature would add great value to Airtable, as it would allow people to build invoice forms with live feedback of costs.

I’m considering implementing this feature for FormNano
Anyone interested in providing requirements and feedback? Let’s work together to make this possible. Contact me via the FormNano contact form and mention you’re from the AirTable community.

+1 this is something that should be added! I hope soon.

Absolutely desperate for this feature! I need the ability for someone to select a dropdown on a form and then various options “show up” based on their selection. This is for internal staff. Any suggestions!???

We’ve built a half solution for this. Our tool allows you to show formula fields right after a form is submitted.

It’s been a while since we released this feature, I’m glad to announce that we have a newer extension that supports formula fields completely inside the form. Here is how it works:

This suggestion deserves a bump. I would also find it very helpful to display a formula field in a form as a way to validate my data. For example, is the first number greater than the second number? Or to be used to show a total.
