What is the proposed idea/solution? ...when changing the name of a Field in a Synced Table, the updated name should also be Synced. This would likely require a feature, whereby a Synced Field and a local Field can have the same name without a conflict. This should not be a problem, because it's easy to determine what is synced field vs local due to the lightning bolt icon. How does is solve the user problems? ...without this feature, any changes to a Field Name are not propagated to other Synced Tables. This causes confusion. How was this validated? ...Try changing the field name of a Synced Table and find out! It's frustrating. Who is the target audience? ...all users who use Synced Tables.

Hi! Fighting with third party services that have limits on executions that are limited to 1 per seconds or something like that? I'm fighting this inconvenience that i'm creating queues with data... Just wondering if it make sense that Automations have a property that set that only 1 automation can run at time and another property that set the delay in seconds between automations. That could help people to avoid creating queues and perhaps you gays, perform a more efficient computing usage. Regards Airable lovers!

"When I use the selection field to group the list, and I want to change various records to a newly created group/selection, I have to go into each record and change each selection/group."

What is the proposed idea/solution? An option to integrate my data with Canva to be able to customize documents, add logos, create invoices, etc. How does is solve the user problems? A much easier way to customize and download PDF's from entering data ONCE into airtable vs. having to re-enter the data to make PDF's. (Page designer does not help me with this because you have to input the data one piece at a time & it separates data to its own page which is very annoying). How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Any business owners, designers, project managers, any and all Canva lovers.

Button field in table can be used to run a script but not an automation. Button in interface detailed view can be used to run an automation but not a script. Besides, these buttons cannot be displayed on record lists. Could Button field be used to start an automation (the same way interface button does)? It could be very useful to have the same button, launching the same automation displayed in different interfaces and in the table views. And also having the button available in lists views. My "hacky" workaround for now, is creating a checkbox field and an automation that runs when the checkbox is checked (and unselect itself at the end). Thanks!

Hi all! I have a ton of automations that are simply "Tag with ___ form" where the automation runs if a form is submitted. Basically just to keep track of various forms that we have and where they are coming from. Makes it easier to sort the data. Anyways, my idea is to have some of the various triggers for the automation, also trigger for the conditional logic. In a dream world it would look something like this... New Record Created --> IF (1 Form, Tag with "1", If (2 Form, Tag with "2"..) and so on.... With the limit of 45 automations, I am maxed out when 20 of them are just this. Would also clean up my interface big time.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Would be really helpful to be able to dynamically send a Slack Action Message to different channels. As it stands now, static is the default and only option if you want to hook up the Slack Action Message to a channel. For some reason though, you can dynamically send a Slack Action Message to different users. Need this same ability for channels. The possibilities are endless. Who is the target audience? Any type of agency that want to streamline client approvals

What is the proposed idea/solution? Create / Download / Send to Drive csv with an automation so that you can back up tables or views or the results of find records action How does is solve the user problems? Problem: Snapshots are not a real backup solution since there is no way to restore them without braking any third party integrations that would need to be re-made. The issue of the record ids in the snapshot being different than in the original also means copy/paste is out of the question for linked records. Solution: automated csvs as partial table backups that you can actually import or paste into tables needing restoration Would also help with certain kinds of integration How was this validated? ? Who is the target audience? Everybody
