Hello!

I very often go info my bases to copy 2/3 fields from a much larger base - It would be great to be able to use buttons to copy information from selected fields to the user’s clipboard to avoid unnecessary navigation.

Here’s an example of what that might look like:

And a code logic example I was able to find during research:

Having an Airtable Button to copy field text would be extremely useful. This definitely gets my vote! Also, it would be amazing if Buttons could have their own field/text/emoji icons on a per record basis (which could be referenced/changed via Scripting App/Automation Script too)

I would just add that such a button could be made as an optional feature in field options.

In addition, in interfaces you could go further and make a click (on the actual text) to copy field option.
