It would be great to be able to add labels (plain text) and read-only fields (to be able to prefill them) in the forms. Is anything planned in this direction? ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Airtable already allows barcode scanning in regular views, we need to make sure it works when a Form is being used How does is solve the user problems?

Within an Automation Script, it's frustrating that we still encounter the inability to update the Single Select or Multi Select field options, with the error returning; "Airtable "Error: Cannot update field config from scripting automation" This limitation forces the user to reconsider the field type, with the alternative solution usually swapping it into a Single Line text field. Interestingly, it is possible to use an Automation Update Record action to do this exact same process, but for whatever reason it's not possible for an Automation Script to execute this very same process. Can this limitation please be reviewed and reconsidered by Airtable Developers? Without this feature, it limits the use of Single Select and Multiple Select fields within bases heavily dependent on Automations. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? ... I often use the 'modify' function when using automations (especially for creating/updating). It would be super helpful if we could set this on the preferred fields in tables so that every record - even for records that are already in the table - is modified automatically.  I use the formula field for LOWER and UPPER functions - however, title case is one that I use frequently, but it isn't available. How does is solve the user problems? ... Saves time & confusion on automation set up as well as increases data validation & reliability. Who is the target audience? ...anyone ... View more

It seems that if I want to use a custom format for my Date field, I need to create a Formula field and use DATE_FORMAT(). Would it be preferable in most cases to offer a 'Custom' option in the 'Date format' menu in a Date field's settings? (see attachment) This would then show a text field where one could input the same formatting string one would give DATE_FORMAT(). That way I would not need to create a 'proxy' field to display the date as I prefer.   ... View more

Hello, can we please request the ability to create an expandable section block within the long-text field type when formatting is turned ON? Why this is useful: If I have a long text that spans multiple lines, I want the ability to “minimize” it so I can create sections in my notes, some that are expandable. ... View more

I'm excited to use the external calendar feature (described here) to bring my Airtable data into my other scheduling tools. I understand that each record's primary field will be shown as the event titles, but for this to be really useful, I'd like to be able to specify additional fields to map to the other properties in the iCalendar VEVENT spec (here), such as the location and the description. It would be nice to use a different field for the event title as well, since the primary field is used so heavily elsewhere in Airtable. I realize I might be able to use an Automation to create and update the events in Google Calendar, but keeping everything in sync this way adds a lot of complexity and brittleness. ... View more

A small feature request. It would be helpful if Airtable displayed the colour name when hovering over the colour-picker options when building a single/multi-select field, and in the Color Condition options - similarly to how Excel does. This would be a big help for colour-blind builders. Thanks, Chris ... View more
