When exporting CSV with currency fields with the Euro sign, there is “€” string replacing the € char. Expected behavior : € should be in the CSV export just like in Airtable. Ideal behavior : we should be able to remove the formatting while exporting in CSV. to be able to manipulate the currency values ... View more

It would be really useful to print the names of the filters used in Page Designer on linked records. For example, on a report that shows orders for a customer for only a particular product type. But when I look at the printed report I can’t see when I’ve applied the filter and when I haven’t. One work around could be to have the report name as a field on the report instead, in which I could include a description of the filter. ... View more

I use Airtable to help manage my personal & business accounting needs (instead of a dedicated accounting software like Mint, QuickBooks, or Wave) because I have full customization of the platform. The biggest trouble with using Airtable to track my finances is that I have to manually enter each “transaction.” If Airtable used a 3rd party service like Yodlee to allow users to import their bank transactions automatically it would a very useful feature. At that point, the only other feature Airtable would need to truly make it a fully customizable alternative to Mint or QuickBooks would be “reporting tools” but somebody already made that feature request. Other than the lack of reporting tools, The ... View more

When an automation fails, I get an email that it has failed, but no information about why. It is likely a one off situation but sometimes this adds up and the reason to the error is a mystery. It would be great to have some sort of debugging information to diagnose the problem. For scripts, the full error would be nice, but for other actions, even getting just the basic error message that we see when testing within AT would be helpful. ... View more

It would be nice to be able to group table views into groups or folders that could be collapsed. The real problem probably isn’t with needing views grouped so much as the base creator being able to modify a collaborator’s personal view. As the creator, I manage the base but due to the complexity of databases, the collaborator-user may change something on their view that inadvertently “breaks” its usability, they then need to make it collaborative to be fixed. Since I need to be able to fix/add to my users’ views, I keep them either collaborative or locked which means that I have many many views, making for a cluttered and long list. Having folders would allow me to group the views either by purpose or user. ... View more

There have been a number of requests and discussions around custom scripting solutions pertaining to this feature. I figured I would roll this request into a new thread and update the language in the title to potentially make it easier to find for anyone searching the forums looking for this type of feature. I would love to be able to click a button from a button field and have it immediately start the timer for that record in the timer block. There is an older suggestion here that came before the button field feature existed so does not mention those. There are also a couple great looking custom scripts by @Justin_Barrett here and @kuovonne here, but in addition to these I think there are still use cases for the timer block. Curious if others would like to see this too! ... View more

I have to decide between setting the field to be barcode field the scan barcodes) or setting it as a linked field to another table. I wish I can set it BOTH barcode and linked. If the record is not in the other linked table, it would be helpful if I was able to scan the barcode and add it there rather than type it in. There is the the linked record picker for example that could be a perfect candidate for scanning. I have a work around where I scan the barcode and then manually copy that barcode field to a staging field that is then used to link to another table. Anyhow, why not allowing scanning barcodes in almost any field in AirTable ... View more

I would love the option of showing a gallery-style photo in the matrix block/app. I use Airtable to manage rosters for a number of different organizations, and lately we’ve been uploading photos to be able to automatically generate photo grids for these groups. The matrix view is the best way for us to show these grids organized by meaningful sub-groups (e.g. sections of a choir, classes of a preschool, etc.) in each column, which the people listed down the side. I know this could get messy with multiple records in a matrix square, but in these cases where we know there will only be one record per square, having the photo option would be great! ... View more

Expanded record editing panel (or whatever it is called, the window that opens when clicking the expansion arrows <->, or when simply TAPPING on the line record on iOS) … the editing panel is inconsistent on the iOS and Android mobile app and on the Web / Desktop. In the grid view I have marked many fields to be hidden (mostly function fields I don’t want to see) and left showing in the view (and in the editing window) only that subset of fields I only want to see. Makes sense? Standard feature. However the same thing doesn’t work on the mobile device. Both iOS and Android grid view is showing as it should, however the EXPANDED EDITING PANEL on both on iOS and Android shows ALL fields I have in the table. That means if I have 55 columns (fields) in the table and I have 50 fields hidden, the expanded view on the mobile app should show 5 fields and not all 55 fields. It’s madness to scroll through all that stuff. Some of the hidden multiline fields contain long text. They are all shown in the mobile app so to edit a field that is on the bottom (or at the end) takes endless scrolling. I guess it’s an oversight and I hope this gets fixed quickly. It doesn’t look it’s hard to fix. (Yes I can create a custom view just for the mobile device and push the fields forward to the front. This solution doesn’t work for me because the grid view is constantly changing and as I am adding and removing fields. New fields end up being added at the end in custom views, so in the custom view for mobile device I would have to drag the fields to the front every time I add a field in the table. So this solution would not work.) ... View more
