What is the proposed idea/solution? We should be able to filter records or create automations based off activites (e.g. show records that were marked as Done today, or if record was linked to another record 2 days ago...) How does is solve the user problems? This will help filter records (Attendees) that were linked today to another record (Event) to see how many sign ups we get per day. For automations, this will help Customer success have a list of all Tasks that have passed a certain stage after a certain amount of time. I'm sure there's a lot more we can do once we can use activity for Filters and automations.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Hide the large image/space in an interface when no records match a view's filters. Currently when there are no records, it actually takes up much more visual space than if there is one matching record. How does is solve the user problems? Hiding or condensing this visual would make it much easier for users/clients/readers to scroll a page quickly and see relevant information

I love the Blank Interface option, it allows for text and headers, but it cannot be shared publicly for some reason? I believe Dashboards, however, can be shared publicly. Adding the ability to include links, image, text, and headers would be powerful and helpful (and relatively simple!).

I think a key missing feature is the ability to embed items into an interface. I think this could take one of two (or both) forms. 1. A field that functions kind of like a "document" field. You insert an embed link. When viewed in a base, or in a grid/list view, it just shows as a preview - But when viewed in a record details pane - it translates to a custom sizable-embedded page. Each record's embedded view is based on the link in the field - just like the Button field type. 2. A "hard-coded" form - kind of like the difference between the "button field type" and the buttons you can set up in an interface. In the from-scratch interface builder - there would be a new element type called "Embed" where you could manual populate to with whatever embedded link needed. For example a google doc - or a news feed, etc. This by itself would accomplish half of the ideas that users have been putting forward for new automation triggers and integrations.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Base Schema extension... on steroids 💊!! The existing base schema extension is ok, but could be way better for documenting the base. Simple updates/requirements: 1. Allow for multiple slides/pages where different views/arrangements of the schema can be shown 2. Hide certain tables (when you want to show or explain one specific workflow) 3. Hide certain fields 4. Include table descriptions 5. Include field descriptions 6. Allow for a Header for each slide 5. Allow for text notes within each slide. How does is solve the user problems? Current base schema is good for understanding and visualizing, but not for documenting. Only a few additional features are needed. The whole base would be documented in one same place (extension), going through different workflows and structures in a neat and organized way. It would recycle already existing table and field descriptions. Who is the target audience? All Airtable users with complex bases!

What is the proposed idea/solution? Would love for the date field to have a new format (Day, month/day/year). Example: Friday, September 19, 2024. How does is solve the user problems? It would be super helpful so folks aren't having to switch back and forth between a calendar to see which day lands on that specific date. Our team uses Airtable a lot, and we've been having to create a separate text line to write out the day of the week. Would be much easier if the date format included day. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? Add the ability to insert Widgets into the new Overview Interfaces, or Add the Ability for Header Images and Bookmarks in Canvas Interfaces How does is solve the user problems? Overview interface is a nice new addition, but its very privative and lacks the ability to make it really sign for presentation. Adding widgets would help dramatically, or move the Header image and Bookmark functionality to Widgets for Canvas pages. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Internal Directors and Studio Execs

What is the proposed idea/solution? When fields are placed on an interface page, allow it to display a comparison, such as 'x% greater,' to the summary for that field with defined filters (min, max, median, average, etc.). Having a small visual indicator like an up or down arrow would also be helpful for glanceability. How does it solve the user problems? When creating record review pages, it would be useful to show how a record compares to others. In particular, for project tracking, it would be helpful to see if, for example, time to completion was 75% faster than the average for other projects in the table, or spend was 60% higher. It's also helpful for ICs to see how their work compares to other similar projects. Who is the target audience? Project managers, people managers, and individual contributors
