Since calculated fields cannot be merged, why have them appear in the dedupe block’s merge interface? If you have a lot of calculated fields it’s a lot of clutter with no purpose.

Hi there, I‘m searching for a way to detect duplicate entries in a table. My table contains event names, currated by me. I have a form that anyone can use, to suggest new events. When someone submits an event, I‘d like the table to warn me that an event with a similar name already exists. Any idea how to do this? Thanks

It would be good to be able to chart table data using a date range in addition to the existing options of bucket by day, week, month, quarter, year… etc. The use case being if you want to visualize data in date ranges that correspond to business reporting financial years. For example, in Australia, the financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June. In UK, the financial year runs 1 April to 30 March.

I have a super complicated base that is the backbone of my business. The Base schema block is a life saver as I work to clean up/understand my column and cross table relationships. Similar to base schema it would be AMAZING if there was a way when on a view you could see if there are any blocks that are built using it. There is already a notification that a viewed is shared so its already somewhat of a framework

Probably a lot can be borrowed from the maps API implementation in Blocks. Would be super awesome to enter an address and have the Base then ‘know’ the timezone of that record! Cheers.

I’d like the ability to create and save multiple drafts within the SendGrid block. We use it to send a handful of basically “evergreen” transactional emails. At the moment, we create drafts in a shared Google doc that include {field data} to personalize the messages. This isn’t too cumbersome, but occasionally we make improvements to the draft within SendGrid after reviewing the Preview – in these cases, if we don’t then remember to update the draft in the Google doc atferwards, we lose all our work. And that’s a bummer. thank you

Needs to be a way that items put in a block and be “locked” in place so you can’t move them by accident (right click, lock item, unlock item) also “undo and redo” funtionality.

I used this workflow. 1.scan an existing barcode on a third party list to create barcode number on an item using iPhone and adding number directly to a barcode field 2. Set up print list using blocks page designer 3. Added barcode field to list to be printed by clicking to add. No change in dimensions of field thereby added 4. Printed and tried to scan printed barcode with iPhone in the relevant table and view 5. Fails as barcode will not scan Further test show barcode MUST be printed at 100% ( which it was) AND (this is much worse) stretched to a larger size in order to scan. Result is a barcode printed output twice the size as the original barcode used to input into Airtable

Create a toggle button for multi and single select fields to not allow new select options to be added by an Editor that creates records. We would like to allow Editors the ability to add records but not add rogue field options, which is hurting our data that we want to track. We do not want to grant them any higher access to be a Collaborator. Current state, we are spending a lot of time to continually re-train the users to not add in rogue select options. This toggle button option should carry through the CSV Import Extension so no button appears for users to try and add in missing options.

What is the proposed idea/solution? True emailing and calling functionality. The ability to send and receive emails and make and receive calls within airtable and have them log to the record or even multiple records. Preferably the user would be able to choose from popular third party email and phone providers that would integrate in. How does is solve the user problems? To my mind, with this feature, airtable now becomes a real alternative to CRM systems, helpdesk/ticketing systems, etc. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Really anyone using airtable. The most popular CRMs and other systems are starting to feel old and tired. People WANT to use airtable for more and more things, but until there are true communication features built in, it's hard to do so.
