It would help us out in a major way if we could color code multiple columns at a time. Ideally, we’d love to be able to see green vs red differences in how much we spent vs how much our budget was for several of our products. For instance, we have 6 columns: Budget 1 Spend 1 Difference 1 Budget 2 Spend 2 Difference 2 When setting up the conditional logic, we’d love to be able to say “if the difference is less than x, make the field green.” Thank you so much! ...

Hi folks, Being able to measure duration between tasks seems to be a fairly common business requirement. So far we have DATETIME_DIFF which is great because it lets you specify the unit of measurement (day, hour, minute etc). However it will also include weekend days. The WORKDAY_DIFF is great as it excludes weekends but unfortunately it only has one unit - day. So my feature request - either add ‘unit’ as an option to WORKDAY_DIFF or create a new function called WORKTIME_DIFF. Thanks, Neil ... View more

Airtable needs to replicate how Excel helps with formulas: Highlight elements of the formula and show brackets in different colours and different formulas in different colours Provide basic guidance… if a bracket is missing, then tell me it is missing and suggest me where it should be and ideally perhaps show a tally of brackets I add so I can later see how many closing brackets I need to add without having to go through the formula and recount the brackets; If there is a circular reference, then show me the parts that are involved; If there is a missing argument in a formula, then show me where is the missing argument, and perhaps suggest what argument is missing; some of the formulas are specific to AirTable requirements e.g. VALUE() and BLANK(), often these are used to deal with errors in other formulas, so I would appreciate if AirTable could suggest how to fix typical errors e.g. non-number argument in a formula that requires a number and so on… When creating new formula the window shows the sample format, but clicking on the individual argument doesn’t take me to the part (and highlight the part) of that argument in my formula. I could go on and on… ... View more

It can be difficult to understand what someone’s formula is doing when the editing window is so small and the formula is huge, spanning many lines and wrapping many times, sometimes with deeply nested IF statements. It would be great to have a larger space to view and work with the entirety of the formula, especially if the formula is also prettily formatted and structured to make it more readable! ...

I have an iPad Pro and it’s beyond frustrating having to drag myself through the desktop site (which already sucks on mobile devices) just to build a simple formula tab or edit it for that matter. Am I the only one here that’s incredibly frustrated by this? ... View more

I’m heavily considering a return to Airtable after finding Notion’s databases overly nascent and Coda overly complex. However, I’m quite stunned to find regular expression functions, e.g. REGEXMATCH and REGEXREPLACE, absent from Airtable. Do we know if the team plans to incorporate these critical functions? ...

When I use a lookup table to reference an e-mail address, url, or phone number in another table, I would like those fields to act as active e-mail addresses, urls & phone numbers when they are displayed in the lookup table. Currently the lookup table formats them as text, so if I want to e-mail a group of people from a particular set of lookup fields, I have to hand copy all of the e-mail addresses. Or, if I want to text someone from a particular lookup field, I have to hand copy the phone number. ... View more

Would like a chat block :pray: I know that lot of communication happens in Slack but I think that it would be useful anyway Here is how it could work: A chat block could be set to display comments from records across the entire base from the views of your choice. So it would be like a basewide activity feed. Like the activity feed, you could select whether you will see activity and comments or only comments. Sometimes I miss the ability to quickly see what has happened in the base since last. With the coming block dashboard you could create a dashboard for certain teams and add chat blocks only for them, and that would only show records comments from the views that were relevant to them I actually think that a lot of our Slack channels would end up as Chat blocks if this was an option. It would also give people a sense of being together in a base and not just working together on it. ... View more

Hello! Love this software. Starting to use it for post-production supervising in film and I was wondering if there were any plans to spruce up timecode support? Right you have duration which does, HH:MM:SS, but it would be great to get HH:MM:SS:FF, and different framerate support as well. Would also be amazing to add, subtract, and convert these values to different framerates. Anyone know of another way of doing this? Was thinking about doing a bunch of formula fields to manually calculate, but I’m thinking I might just use my google sheets script to calculate everything out first. Thanks, ... View more
