Allow the Admin account to share specific views to users, and revoke access to others.

This would be a page where I can add or remove users access to the specific view. This should also be similar in the Permissions options, where users can be an editor, viewer, commenter, but have it so they can have different permissions in different views.

This means that a user may have access to 'View 1' and 'View 2', but not 'View 3', and this user is able to edit in 'View 1' but not in 'View 2' and cannot see or edit in 'View 3'

I think they expect us to handle this with Interfaces; what issues did you face trying that out?

@TheTimeSavingCo  Using interfaces was not practical for us as the team need to be able to edit it in a table layout, and the only way to get a table view in an interface is through starting with a blank page which causes issues when scrolling over the page or within the interface. So i suppose the other solution to our problem would be with a dedicated 'table' interface

As I mentioned in your other post on this topic, you can get a dedicated grid view in interfaces.

Hope this helps! If youโ€™d like to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant โ€” ScottWorld

You're welcome! Yeah, Airtable has made this EXTREMELY confusing for people, because "grid view" isn't listed as one of the initial page options when you create a new interface page. I would recommend emailing support@airtable.com about this issue as a feature request, and hopefully they will fix this problem in the future.
