There should be two attachment types - private and public. Public attachments are accessible from non-expiring URLs and private attachments are accessible through the following configurable options PAT with correct permissions (AKA downloadable via stream...not just a link) Expiring URLs that optionally require login to view and have configurable expiration times Online from a properly permissioned user account

When working on tickets you can not copy/paste photos into the comments or description. This makes closing tickets take much longer because you have to save every file locally and upload. This loses context of why the photo was uploaded, etc. Many other PM programs allow copy/paste (Asana to name one) and having this functionality would make air table much better.

Hello! I would like AirTable to be able to preview DXF files just like it does with PDF, JPG, Excel, etc. The possibility to add comments would also be great. And while at it, how about STL, STEP, IGS, DWG...? Thanks!

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.

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?

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.

I keep closing my Airtable application window because the Image view Close icon is so close to the Application icons. Please consider moving the Close icon further from the application icons.
I am talking about overlay window that opens when I click on the document attachment (e.g. picture). I am on Mac and using the Airtable app for MacOS (not sure if same issue is on Windows, since the Windows icons are on the right, so this may well be only limited to MacOS Airtable app.
Here is what I mean:
