What is the proposed idea/solution? The long text field in airtable currently does not support addition of images and videos directly. A user has to use an embed code to do this which can become too technical for users without a coding experience.  How does is solve the user problems? The long text field should support a format like this with all the controls, so that users can add images and tables.     How was this validated? Research on other tools that support this and also user feedback. Who is the target audience? Users withou tech or coding experience ... View more

We need a way to choose a dynamic latest end date by each record, ideally an optional date field that goes into the timeline settings and does not allow records to be scheduled past that. I've explored using colors but there are two issues: We can't use dynamic values in the color conditions Even if we could, I'd like to combine the conditional coloring with auto-coloring from selects ...

Hi, We're using Airtable to progress job cards via a Kanban system with assignee (staff member) as the single select field and task as the record. Unfortunately it only shows the assignee stacks that contain records. i.e. the staff that have tasks. If a staff member has no task, their empty stack is not visible. This makes reallocating tasks to someone without an existing task in kanban view impossible. It would be great to have an option to select which assignee (staff member) stacks were visible including those with no records in their stack. ... View more

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. ... View more

We use Airtable quite extensively and the most often used tab has a whopping 65 columns. We make use of many views and love Airtable! A small frustration is that when trying to organize columns from the "Hide Fields" dropdown you have to grab each visible column one by one and drag it to the top if you want the visible columns to be first... which we usually do. It seems like this would be something very easy for the developers to add a "Move hidden fields to bottom" or "move visible fields to top" button and it would save a lot of time on a very automatable task. Thank you for your consideration. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Provide a mechanism to identify and flag STALE tables/bases within a given Airtable workspace. Stale tables/bases are those where the data has NEVER been accessed within the last 30/60/90/180 days. Consider allowing base creators to set an OPTIONAL time-to-live (TTL) timestamps either on a per table or per base.  If data has not been accessed either by a user or by an API after that time, then auto-delete the table/base. How does is solve the user problems? In many environments, there is "data sprawl" where users may randomly create "test" tables/bases for short-term purposes.  It would be nice to identify and flag where stale data exists, so that it can be purged as needed.  This can be a compliance requirement for many industries, depending on the type of data stored within Airtable. How was this validated? Teams can spend DAYS or WEEKS per month trying to figure this out.  Having a mechanism like this would save countless hours of manual review. Who is the target audience? Airtable administrators Notes: * 7 days before a table/base is about to expire, email the creator of the table/base to notify them the content is about to expire. Include metrics about how frequently the data has been accessed in the past 30/60/90 days by users or API calls. * Provide a quick mechanism for administrators to: extend the TTL by a fixed amount (like +30 days) OR turn OFF the TTL altogether. ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? ... A new feature that transposes the Rows and Columns of a View. How does is solve the user problems? ... It is useful to transpose the Rows and Columns of a Table for for viewing and / or calculations. In Airtable it is more efficient to create Records for time rather than Fields (e.g. each Row is a unit of Time like a Week, Month, Quarter, Year, etc. and not the column). The ability to see each unit of Time as a column moving from left to right is standard practice. How was this validated? ...This is a core feature to all spreadsheet applications.
