What is the proposed idea/solution? Please make it possible to sync the google drive in an automation or from an API call as an extra option beside just the 5 minute interval or manual click in the airtable><Google Drive table that is currently available. How does is solve the user problems? When you are designing workflows in an airtable interface and the flow is touching on a document that is created and then stored in a google drive, your workflow is automatically interupted now until the sync is completed between airtable and Google drive before you can work with the data from the newly created document. The only way to bypass this lagg currently is by manually going into the table and press the "sync now" button. However, in many use cases (including mine), you dont want the customer to go into the data part of airtable.  How was this validated? I have been looking online and the only somewhat relevant info is on how to keep the table "alive" by setting up an automation on an interval. But that doesnt solve the problem as it still requires you to wait a few minutes for the sync to automatically occur. Who is the target audience? Workflow designers who have customers who only get access to interfaces or external access (like softr, make etc.) ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Permit an integration with Google Drive for Cloud Storage or any other platform as such for attachments because when there are attachments included within in a Form, the database cannot handle the capacity which airtable provides.  How does is solve the user problems? The user can now view critical documents through Google Drive from the airtable once the user clicks on any cell which has an attachment, or you could use an API to Pull that data and show it in some interface within airtable itself to make it easier for the user to visualise, but the data is stored in GDrive. How was this validated? After I tried showcasing Airtable to the Senior Management who had already invested in Microsoft Suite, they found it ridiculously expensive for only having 1GB of cloud storage for attachments when you could simply connect to your Google Drive or Dropbox and avail extra storage which is not an available feature.  Who is the target audience? Anyone who requires additional storage for attachments.  ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Pivot table to be added as a view instead of used as an app integration. The integrations don't have the same control or usability as a native view and require you to full-screen them thus losing the rest of the interface. How does it solve the user problems? Users can have their data stored in a grid view and then have pivot tables for each filters data set How was this validated? Through our business use case, we need to view multiple pivot tables from one data set. Who is the target audience? Business owners and product managers ... View more

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 ... View more

I love the slack integration!  I'd love to be able to customize which types of updates come through - for example, I'd like to be able to limit update notifications to when someone comments, or someone @'s me, but not when someone changes status, or adds info to a field. Also, I'd like to be able to set it to ignore updates that I myself make, as I don't really need to be notified of those. 🙂  Thank you! ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Export automation logs to solution like a dedicated Airtable, Sheets or DataStudio (when an official connector?)  How does is solve the user problems? Searching inside logs for troubleshooting or monitoring is just a nightmare and one execution by one How was this validated? Idea is to export raw data to data analytics tools (simpler like sheet, robust like DataStudio (google looker studio) or build it inside Airtable as an option to activate 'Create a dedicated automation log table' Who is the target audience? Any user of airtable that need to follow-up /monitor automation execution. ... View more

We use RabbitMQ a lot to take action when certain record events happen. For example, when users are created in a table, this sends a message which triggers account creation in other systems. At the moment, we use scripting automations to send POST requests to our RabbitMQ HTTP API. This is cumbersome, and there's no way to listen to events without creating webhooks. We would love first-class AMQP integration in Airtable. This would look like: In automations, the ability to send an AMQP message with a routing key and payload Ability to listen to an AMQP topic and take action ... View more
