Seems like a no-brainer to me: It would be incredibly helpful to have an auto-generated legend for interfaces that shows users what the colors represent in the view. As it is now, the coloring helps to visually provide some differences but doesn't contain any usable information unless you can easily recall what 6 or 7 different colors mean.  I think this would benefit most users!  Bonus points for adding a color palette that is friendly for users with color vision issues. ...

Our team really needs the ability to group fields together and visually display those groups, similar to adding an extra header row in Excel (example below). Benefits: Enhanced Visual Clarity: This feature will provide an improved visual understanding of the relationship between different fields, eliminating the need for users to check each field's description separately. Improved Organization: This feature will allow users to categorize and group related fields together, enhancing the data's structure and making it easier to navigate and understand. Personalization: By allowing users to change the color and title of the group, the feature adds a layer of personalization, making the data representation more intuitive and user-specific. Use Case Examples: Project Management: In a project management base, fields can be grouped together based on different project stages, team responsibilities, etc., enhancing the understanding of project flow and status. CRM: In a CRM base, fields can be grouped by customer details, interaction history, deal status, etc., providing a better overview of customer relationships. HR Management: In an HR base, fields can be grouped into "Applicant Details" and "Interview Status", making it easier to track the recruitment process. Event Planning: In an event planning base, fields can be grouped by event details, participant information, logistics, etc., enhancing the event management process. This feature, with its focus on improving visual understanding and data organization, aligns with Airtable's commitment to making data management more intuitive and user-friendly. Requirements Ability to create groups of related fields. Ability to assign individual fields to these groups. Ability to distinguish each group visually in both List and Grid views. Ability to display the name of the group in a master header above the respective grouped fields. Ability to personalize the appearance of these groups. Ability to change the color of a group. Ability to change the title of a group. ... View more

Button Fields could really use an update to allow for dynamic button labeling. A label could be set to not only Single Line Text, but also support other field types such as Single Select, Link Fields, but also Attachments where an Image could be displayed as a clickable button. Here, we see each button opening a unique URL, however the label is static - locked as the text "Open URL" which is an awful user experience. Why not allow for other fields to be referenced within the Label, exactly how the URL formula works?  Part of this issue stems from the URL field itself also being too simplistic, and not supporting text for the referenced URL itself (which then itself could be used by a button field, without the need for an independent Label field). ...

Basically anyone who want to build a schedule or running order. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Allow individual rows to expand to fit long text (like "wrap text" in Google Sheets) or at least to fit MORE long text. How does is solve the user problems? Sometimes I want to skim my data (in my case customer emails), but I can't do so when I have to click into each individual record when long text fields get cut off (even when height is set to "Extra Tall"). Clicking into each record is a big time suck. Who is the target audience? Any Airtable user with long text fields, but specifically bases with customer emails. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Be able to group and/or hide tables in a base. For example I am linking to records in other bases, so tables are being imported into bases. I'd like to hide these synced tables to keep the base organzied and focused for users. How does is solve the user problems? Helps with staying organized and keeping a base clean. I'd like to hide these synced tables to keep the base organized and focused for users. It could help clearly show which tables are meant to be interacted with, while other tables are purely due to being referenced, thus wanting to hide them. How was this validated? ? Who is the target audience? Everyone using Airtable ... View more
