When I use a lookup table to reference an e-mail address, url, or phone number in another table, I would like those fields to act as active e-mail addresses, urls & phone numbers when they are displayed in the lookup table. Currently the lookup table formats them as text, so if I want to e-mail a group of people from a particular set of lookup fields, I have to hand copy all of the e-mail addresses. Or, if I want to text someone from a particular lookup field, I have to hand copy the phone number. ... View more

I’m really liking the new “My Favorites” view feature. It would be wonderful if Airtable could allow you to “favorite” Apps as well. I use the same 4-5 apps repeatedly between bases and every time I create a new base, I have to search for the apps. Would be great if all of my favorites were just there on the first page when I go to add an app. ... View more

Would like to be able to lock a dashboard of blocks to a particular table so that it always shows up when users are in that table but also shows up only in that table? A simple example would be having a dashboard with the CSV import block that would always and only appear in a “People” table of contacts (but would be useless in a project management table). ...

I’m using the Timeline and Gantt views for software product roadmaps. Milestones (very cool and simply items with just an end date) display as tick marks at the top. This is very nice. I use it to mark important major events or deadlines along the top of the calendar of work. I’m also doing some tricks to mark Program Increments (Time periods) as headings at the top. I can force them to the top by making sure my group field has a category that sorts the milestones to the top. Easy trick. Works fine. The problem is when I scroll down to look at stuff, the milestones and PI periods scroll out of view. I want these them to lock (like a header) so they always display, regardless of how far I scroll down. What comes to mind is the Excel “freeze row” feature So, in general, I’m look for a way to plot major deadlines, milestones or events (including program increments) across the top of the timeline/gantt and have then always display, regardless of how far I scroll down. ...

I have the Maps block enabled in my table, but need to be able to search the map with an address and have it show the “nearest” locations from my database on the map. Is this possible? PLEASE say it is! ! Basically, it’s what I do in Google Maps, but can’t seem to figure out how to get a search box onto my Maps Block map! ... View more

I’m lovin’ Airtable, but, in grid view, I’m not thrilled with those little icons that appear beside very field name to indicate what type of field it is. Most are text fields, so it looks as if I have fields named “A First Name” and “A City”. I’d like a configuration switch to switch them off. ... View more

Hi. I have created a “master base” for an client. This base has many tables (~30) that all reflect entities that are important to the clients business/workflow and I’ve applied normalization as much as possible. I have tried using Airtable’s sync feature to split out related information into separate bases. However, after using sync, data becomes read-only so no edits can be made and data is no longer available in “real-time”. I am using miniExtentions for the client’s project (since line-item entry and other features are needed) and they always need the ability to edit and add data wherever possible (directly from miniExtentions forms, grids or cards). As a result of the clients needs, I have always resorted back to the single base design with many tables since separate bases with sync doesn’t work for the clients use case. Considering the above, what is the best way to organize a base with many tables (~30)? It’s super annoying to have to scroll through so many tables! #FeatureRequest — It would be nice if there was a way to visually group common tables together within the same base. Any ideas on how to better organize the tables? I assume I am not the only one facing this problem as a result of client needs and I believe people that are creating client portals or forms using miniExtentions, Stacker, Softr, or a similar tool are facing the same issue. Please assist. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks. ... View more
