I've been using Airtable as an invoice tracker, creator, and sender so that I can use the payment processor that I want to use. I'm wanting page designer to have a download button that I can just click once and have my documents download as a pdf immediately instead of using the "save to pdf" work around. It would also be great if you can customize the file name using fields to help with organization. This would be good for weekly, monthly, and yearly financial and performance reports in various scenarios. Also, it would be epic if the page designer could be automated to download directly into an attachment field, or emailed as an attachment. Then, as a bonus, we should be able to do a batch download of attachments/files into a zip folder. This should be easy for Airtable's development team to implement since so many platforms have this functionality. This isn't new technology that I am asking for.

Occasionally I find the need to be able to add a general comment to an entire table (not base, not record). Would be great if you can add a function to the table drop-down, like 'add attachments'. The attachment might be a PowerPoint presentation providing context for the table, and excel file explaining calculations, etc.

Hello 🙂 When an image is added in a cell, the only thing we can do on it is to add comments, which is fine but not sufficient IMO. A great addition would be the ability to make quick drawings (crosses, lines, rectangles for example) on an image. That would help a lot here ! Thanks, Regards. Nicolas Caplat

It would be great if you could paste an image into a cell and either a thumbnail of the image appears OR a URL to the image is created and entered in the cell. If I know a document will require screenshots, I create a google doc instead of using Airtable because it’s just so much easier to use cmd+ctl+shift+4 to generate a screen grab and then paste the image.

Hi - I’m a lender and would like to use page designer to generate monthly statements for my borrowers. Ideally these are easily converted to pdf and saved in an attachment field for each record in a view. Right now there is no easy way to do this except for printing each separately and adding manually, or printing all records, splitting, and then uploading. We could save to an attachment field using a template and Formstack integration, but there are a couple limitations. No table view for linked fields and Formstack pricing is based on the number or merges, which would start to add up quickly. To share the statements with our borrowers, we’ll use Stacker so they can login to their portal and access the statements.

Increasing the number of automations in a base was awesome! They doubled, which saved me from having to find other solutions. I’m VERY thankful for that. Increasing storage based on plan would be an incredible next step. The pricing structure versus what you get for storage has a huge disparity. Free plans get two Plus gets five Pro gets twenty And enterprise gets one thousand. Pro is in need of a horsepower upgrade - we use Airtable enough to need enterprise, but its price is a cliff. I think the storage should be somewhere around this per base: Free plans get two Plus gets twenty Pro gets fifty And enterprise gets one thousand. I’d take more, but that feels like an absolute minimum. I’d love a way to increase storage on a base, or at least have an option for 100gb or so that we would want so that we don’t have to think about storage or the logistics of hosting it elsewhere. As a database, it is supposed to be our one source of truth. This makes it way easier having the media we need hosted here. A 20gb limit hamstrings that intention. Sure, it’s solved with more bases, but that is annoying and confusing for the end user.

I love the ability to import images via a URL. One thing I’ve recently encountered is the inability to import images in the WebP format. Use of this image format is quickly becoming (annoyingly) widespread. This would likely require converting the images to JPG on import for storage, but that would be simple enough to code. (See: developers . google . com/speed/webp/docs/using) Currently, I’m having to use a third-party website to convert WebP images to JPG, and that adds another 5-8 steps in the process to import an image via URL. I would rather not have to leave Airtable to import WebP images as this is a function I use a LOT.

The ability to comment on specific sections of an image or video is very helpful for our marketing team. Is there a way to do the same thing for a document that’s been uploaded or a PDF? We often generate copy in this way and would like to be able to have people suggest edits the same way.

My primary key differentiator of Airtable versus Google Sheet is the ability to upload attachments on the row. While images work well. Video attachment doesn’t play and requires downloading. It would be great to have this feature to at least have everything in Airtable available in term media viewing.
