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.

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.

The button is way to small in the mobile app, impossible to click on first try, sometimes need to click 10 times to hit it. It’s not a problem with the application or iOS or Android but the close button is too small. The issue is on iOS (iPad mini smaller screen than iPad) and maybe also Android, don’t know.) See picture.

Hello, We want to be able to search within attachments (word/ppt/pdf), similarly to typing a keyword in dropbox or google drive and getting results based on the presence of that word or phrase. PDF to text conversion is not a great solution for us since we have upwards of 3000 records and each record contains 2 attachments on average. Has anyone found a working solution?

I am a regular use of the AirTable iOS app, but have two requests / issues that I encounter on a daily basis. I usually attach some attachments (images for the most part) to my records and about 50-60% of the time, the attachments fail to upload to the record (ie. due to some issues with AirTable server, mobile network connectivity, etc.–actually unknown as there are no logs, just silently fails from an user perspective). It would be awesome if the iOS app had some local caching / management and syncing functionality built into the attachments feature so my uploads don’t get lost on “failure”. Since there is no notification that the upload has failed and they are just dropped, I don’t usually notice that my attachments are missing until I review the record several days later and then I have to track down and mentally re-associate attachments with the record. To the iOS devs: a simple temporary fix would be to add some type of retry logic in the failure callback of the upload call. Another issue I am having related to images is I will usually attach multiple images to a record. It would be awesome if I could select multiple images in the gallery. Otherwise, I have to upload images one by one, and if the image is “far down” the image gallery, I have to scroll all the way back down and find out which image I need to upload. Anybody else having these issues with attachments and/or have a solution/workaround for the time being?

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.

My team shares excel files of names and addresses in an “Attachment” column. Is it possible for the attachment preview to show how many rows are in the attached excel file? Additionally, if that attachment preview would also show comments that are embedded in a PDF file I would win the nerdiest Airtable user at HPU award… and I love to win.

Any window that opens in Airtable can be closed by pressing ESC (Escape) key on keyboard except for the attachment-detail view (it’s the window showing single attachment e.g. picture detail). That window can’t be closed by ESC.
Please consider making ESC available to close it. It’s super inconvenient to have to click the close icon in the window to close it.
