When constructing a formula in a formula field, until I press save, I guess what the results might look like for a given record or two. I’d like to remove the guesswork and a result preview might help. Perhaps a preview could show the result based on the first (or current) record in view. When the syntax of my formula has no errors, it’d be sweet to see a real-time result preview to guide me to: further adjust my formula or give me confidence to save. I believe a formula result preview would reduce the back and forth of trying formula, saving, and editing again, repeatedly. ... View more

When I create a shared view calendar, it creates a read-only calendar. But when our outsource personnel clicks on items on calendar, it just shows everything on the view no matter how filtered they are. I just leaked the most precious data to our competitor. The calendar was made from a view that was already filtered for sensitive data, but the calendar just shows it all. This cannot be a simple feature request, but it’s a serious security bug, I think. Any thoughts? ... View more

The tag line for your product is “looks like a spreadsheet, acts like a database”. That being the case, please consider that many people/companies will in fact want to replace most of their spreadsheet use with it! Which in turn expands your marketplace exponentially. BUT, in order to do that, you need to give us a folder hierarchy with simple detail views to manage the hundreds or thousands of bases we will have. Right now the huge icons in list view are IMHO rather silly if you want companies of any size (who will quickly have hundreds or thousands of bases) to be using this. Thanks for considering. ...

Hi - We’re looking to pull a percentage of a task complete and reflected that % as a progress bar in a cell for a single record. We want the progress bar to be continuous (up to an integer) as the % of the task completed is updated… I.e. (just one of many use cases) if we have a record that is counting # of forms submitted for a given record, and the total number is noted in the record, the percentage of completed forms with respect to the completed record is reflected in an updating graphic progress bar. Bootstrap plugin example: https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_progressbars.asp. The progress bar Airtable feature should update from as the percentage cell on the record self-updates upon completion of a given trigger elsewhere in the Airtable ecosystem. Many thanks! ...

Why is it possible to link records in iOS but there’s no “x” to unlink? Am I missing how to do that? It would be rather annoying to have to go on my computer just to unlink when I prob will only use this program (which is fantastic btw!) on my iPad. ... View more

this is excellent and usefull but i consider unfair for pricing a person who is just a commenter, to have the same billing with an editor. I am not saying put commenter for free, but since it is a permission level between an editor and a read-only it would be fair to have half price in the billing. I would like to add in our bases 2-3 people as commenters but the annual budget get much higher without actually needed. Please reconsider your billing policy about this new feature. thank you Permission levels and billing The cost of upgrading a workspace (and of paying for subsequent months/years of a premium Airtable plan) is affected by the permission levels of your collaborators. When calculating your bill, the following people do count toward the number of users in your workspace (and will therefore increase your per-month or per-year charge): Workspace owners Workspace collaborators at the creator level Workspace collaborators at the editor level Workspace collaborators at the commenter level Base collaborators at the creator level with access to at least one base in the workspace in question Base collaborators at the editor level with access to at least one base in the workspace in question > Base collaborators at the commenter level with access to at least one base in the workspace in question However, neither of the following types of collaborators will count toward the number of users in your workspace (and therefore, neither will increase your per-month or per-year charge): Read only workspace collaborators Read only base collaborators ...

When viewing Airtable case studies at Airtable Universe (Airtable Universe), I was struck by the sidebar featuring a list of custom views, and how useful it a feature it would be in the main Airtable app – it provides a helpful list of views at a glance, and switching between views is a single click, versus the two it takes now with the dropdown. ...

Seems like a logical addition would be able to have some kind of merge duplicates functionality especially when dealing with complex databases, it’s important to preserve linking between tables which makes manual deduplication a pain in the bum. ... View more
