What is the proposed idea/solution? User can choose to send an email directly from comments section. The resulting reply shows up in the comments. Particularly useful is to have an email per workspace How does is solve the user problems? All communication relating to the record/task/client shows up in said record/task/client. This is without having to add erroneous user seat count and or guest usage to Airtable account. Who is the target audience? Any one needing a decent CRM/Ticket/Job management solution, on a none existent budget My user case is extremely specific, but here it is, as briefly and as simplistically as I can put it: I am a reseller for a major ISP, in an effort to increase my commission split I as added as a "sub-agent" to an existing agent. The issue is I lost access to their CRM tool. So I created and interface which allows me to keep track of my clients with the agent I am attached to. This works fine for the most basic of communication between him and me. How ever when I send an email to a client or to our support desk, the evidence of this communication is not recorded in the reciprocal record/task in Airtable.

The specific use case I have is interactive content production where many different elements come together to create a single production. Every element like scripting, translation, voice-over etc has its own table and there seems to be no way to then bring all the elements together in one table to have a general view of where the project is (including filtering by person/status etc)

Hi - I am wondering if it’s possible to automatically get Airtable to pull documents into a database from a certain folder on my desktop. I have a Mac. Is Automator a possible way to do this? Any guidelines would be great. Thanks!

I have been syncing tables into 1 table to combine projects into one view. I would like to be able to make updates to the records from the sync view. Can we have a feature we can tick a box on/off to lock/unlock the ability to change records from sync view?

We use a Snowflake integration on an enterprise plan and would really like to have a more frequent automatic refresh time (every 3 hours ideally) other than the 6 hour refresh time. Our data in Snowflake updates roughly every hours so the 6 hour refresh defeats the functionality of getting the data we need quickly throughout the work day. The data sets we pull from are quite large so manually refreshing the data sometimes causes the integration to break if multiple API requests are made at the same time, so I would much rather use the automatic refresh feature than the manual option.

Security, sustainability, traceability and file management headaches would be significantly reduced if a file existed in one place, under a single corporate entity, with a single set of permissions and shared across SAAS integrations. It would be awesome if a file in Box could be published into an Airtable attachment field in an airtable record without copying it into the Airtable tenant and consuming storage. If a Box link were dragged into an Airtable attachment field and dropped, could Airtable interrogate the file permissions in Box to see if it is allowed? If so, present the thumbnail provided by Box as a preview. Click on the link, and it provides the Box preview as it does today and download capability. If the user's Box login could authenticate download, that would be amazing. Allowing the API to establish the link would be essential. Sustainability +++ Security +++ Ease of use +++

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.
