We would love for there to be a way to customize the calendar view in a way that would allow us, for example, to track events (records) that are occurring simultaneously across various locations (dropdown field). Kind of like how you can see various Google Calendars side-by-side (which was the workaround we used this year via Zapier).  A more specific breakdown of what we're looking to do is as follows: - The ability to create sections within the calendar view based on a dropdown field within the Table. Since we're hosting events across various venues throughout the day, it's vital that we see every event side-by-side, split up by venue to ensure there's no overlap. - When choosing to add other date fields to pull from, it'd be great to be able to customize what information goes into those additional date fields instead of AirTable just expanding the main record. Example: Each event (record) has an introduction, Q&A, and turnaround time. If there was a way to have the calendar show those different start/end times separately, and if we could choose what areas from that record are highlighted, that would be ideal. ... View more

Really. We need a form or an addition to the current form that allows for editing a current record as opposed to only being able to add a new record. I should be able to send a client a form that they can find their record in and update their data and not have it create a completely new record.  Please. I hate that I've had to resort to paying another company in order to do this.  ... View more

I’m using forms for user research and I would like to segment answers from different customer groups, similar to how survey monkey allows you to create different links to the same survey and segment answers accordingly. In this case I want to create I want to create different forms with the same questions, but which have a hidden pre-filled field called “Origin”, prefilled with values like “Facebook”, “Internal” or “Newsletter”, so I can backtrack what kinds of answers come from which channel. Being able to prefill fields that are hidden from the form would allow me do do this inside of Airtable rather than go to a more complicated tool like Survey Monkey. Best, Oli ... View more

I really need for Kanban to work with a multiselect field the way Timeline works. The ability to group/lane by each option in the multiselect field. Then if there is more than one selection then the card appears in each lane of the selections. I would think that in the split scenario, if a card is selected with options A and B ... then if you grab a card to move it from option A to Option C, it would result in Option B and option C now. If you needed to add a 3rd selection, then you would go into expanded view to edit the selections. We are using this as a todo/workload board. Anything under a team/persons name indicates it's in progress, and we can see what they are working on and when each are due. In some cases we have a task that needs more than one person working on it, but do not want to create new projects for these scenarios. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? When inputting a form on Airtable, allow for progress to be saved on that form so that various users can contribute to one same form. How does it solve the user problems? When having forms filled in that requires info from multiple parties, it means multiple forms do not have to be filled in. How was this validated? ...

I know this has been posted many times before, but we need a real solution to allow for grouping by multi-select fields in a way that makes all records associated with at least that value shown in the value grouping.  Yes, this might result in one record appearing multiple times in a grid view. Yes, that is desirable.  Notion users know that this is much more intuitive and user-friendly than the way Airtable handles this behavior.  --- Here's a real example for us: We do project planning in Airtable across quarters. Projects may span multiple quarters (multi-select field). There is no way to view all projects grouped by quarter where all Q1 projects are collected in a single group!  As a designer, it boggles my mind that it behaves this way...   ... View more

When we have a lot of fields on a table and many views, it becomes labour-intensive to manage.  Often fields are related and we want to manage and display them as an ordered group in multiple views. An example might be the financial aspects of a product, where cost, price, sales volume, revenue, tax, and profit are related.  A mechanism to manage them as a group in views would be a major efficiency win, and also increase consistency as the group is always displayed in the same order and with no field missing. Colour coding of the group would also be valuable for visual identification. Retaining the ability to manage them individually in addition to managing in a group would be very nice. The ability to add a field to multiple groups would be even nicer. Thank you for the great product ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Allow Fields in Kanban Cards (either for Views or Interfaces) to be multi-line. See how a Trello Card looks like: See how packed the tags are and how much information is contained in 3 lines. Now see the same in Airtable for a Kanban Interface: See how the Tags Field is cut-off, not letting the user to see all the corresponding Tags. This issue applies to other potentially long fields such as Text or Formulas containing a concatenated text string. How does is solve the user problems? Currently, the only field type that supports multi-line is the Long Text. However, since the cards are small, any field with more than 4 words get cut off, and a user needs to get into the card details to understand what the card is about. How was this validated? ...

So let me get this straight… everyone who uses Kanban view and actually sorts their records ends up seeing this same screen as the introduction to their view because AirTable won’t let people hide Uncategorized from view? Whose idea was that? ... View more
