Hi All, Airtable definitely needs a way to change the record picker when using linked records from a synced table(or any table for that matter) or even allow a better search mechanism when picking those records. Right now you can search your linked records but not using any criteria of the lookup fields associated with them. Example would be that I have an Employee’s Full Names associated with an Employee ID #. When using the record picker, I can only search by the employee’s ID Number, No criteria matching that employee (First Name , Last Name). I have 250 IDs on file and have to add 20-50 records at a time with data. I cant memorize every employee ID. See Below trying to search with criteria shown in the record picker window I also just learned that if you use a synced table and change the view on that synced table it also changes all the data on ALL other tables that was attached to it. Example: I have employees directory that keeps track of Employee information specifically if they are active or inactive. I have that table synced to another base that keeps track of all employee time on jobs. I have around 8000 records and over 3 years of data. When I changed to synced table view to only show active employees, all of my inactive employees employee data from another table was lost. The record existed but the employee data had vanished. Around 3000 records were gone by filtering a shared tables data. ... View more

Hi there, In kanban view I would like to be able to click checkboxes to move the card to the next stage (automation). I have selected the checkbox field from the “customize cards” drop-down but only ticked checkboxes are visiable. Could you please update this so that empty checkboxes are visible when selected from customize cards. Thanks in advance Isaac ... View more

Feature Request: Gantt View sort by Record Number (not ID) (Poll Vote at the bottom) In the Gantt view When the start and end date are equal to the start and end date of another record, the records will be ordered by their creation date. I would like the records to be sorted by Record Number when start/end dates are created equal. Additional Notes This will allow for the sorting of tasks to be organized manually from within the Grid view. This is useful when one record (or task) needs to be completed before another record for project management purposes. Tasks are always being created and updated and moved around. All workarounds are very cumbersome to get tasks to fall in order. My current workaround: Reorder tasks how I want them, Copy and paste all tasks into a new table in order for the Creation Date to be updated in the order that the records are in. All records now fall in order, but this is not practical. Question to Airtable and Community Is there a use case for having records in Gantt view be placed in order based on Creation Date rather than Record Number? I can’t think of one but I’m only using the Gantt view for project management. Maybe there’s another reason. Please Vote: Will this be helpful for you? Yes 0 voters ... View more

Using Airtable to plan out my day. I like this better than using Google Calendar or iCal since I can see the items as both a list and on a calendar. I can also have way more colors and categories without getting too complicated. Issue is that many of the items are 15 minute tasks and it’s hard to visualize when the tasks push each other to the side instead of stacking. I’d suggest that calendar view be customizable so the height shows X hours at a time. Then scroll can be used to see all the items within a day and no item needs to be pushed to the side because there isn’t enough height for the name of the item. ... View more

Unless I’m missing something major, there doesn’t seem to be an out-of-the-box solution which allows you to filter so as only display records which have a checkbox field unchecked. Checked yes, but unchecked no. Is this an accidental oversight by Airtable? Some reason why this is not possible? Seems like it would be an easy and really great thing to implement. Unless of course this is actually possible and I’m missing something really obvious… (am new to Airtable!) ... View more

Love the updates in transitioning from the Gantt block to the Gantt view. However, a couple things that would be really useful for us! In the Gantt app we used to be able to arrange the gantt blocks so they either cascaded by start date or by end date. This seems to be gone? Grid View has the option to “Collapse all Groups” or “Expand all Groups.” This would be really helpful for us in Gantt View as we have long development & production timelines. Having to collapse & expand all of our groupings individually is frustrating. Additionally our gantt is in a tasks table & then we have a linked table for key beats/stages of our projects & associated info. However, when the Linked Record groups are collapsed, they aren’t in chronological order (defined in the Beats table) & the resulting gantt looks like a mess. I’ve tried a workaround by using a formula & script to add a numerical order to the Name of the record. It works somewhat but having those numbers in front isn’t the cleanest look. It’d be great if we could sort Linked Records by another field (like a date) or have a sort function on Gantt view to sort the groups by other fields somehow. ... View more

It would be a huge help if there was an ability to filter records based on whether or not my account is “watching” it. For example, to create a Personal View that only includes records that have me added as a collaborator or that I have chosen to watch. ... View more

It would be helpful for repetitive data entry via a form if the new blank form “remembered” certain values from the last submitted values. Imagine taking inventory items in various rooms or containers. Instead of having to select that room or container every time you start a new form entry, it would save the user a lot of time if the previous room or container ID were persistent until changed. I envision a flag that can be set for each field when creating the form that indicates which fields will be remembered. Does this capability exist already? ... View more

Please consider adding the ability to change the standard icon next to each view. As well as create a group by view type option. For our use case having the ability to put our client’s logo next to the view that is filtered to their records would be so helpful for quick scan selection of the view we want to open. Also, we use views as processes that trigger integrated automation based on what view the record sits in. Being able to add some “stoplight” or process icons would be game-changing. ... View more
