I would like to have the option to bulk edit my records. I maintain 3 blogs and their posts w/in one base. I have a column that is the single select feature and have the blog names as the option. I am able to filter these using the filter future. although I find myself going through each record just so I could set each one to a specific blog. is there already a feature for this? If not, can u guys please add one? lol ... View more

The barcode feature in the mobile app is great, however searching for an item to link with barcodes only works on linked items when their primary field is the barcode. Barcodes tend to be nondescript, and it makes little sense that they become the primary field, as they then show up all over the place. Why don’t the search field search multiple indexes, letting the user specify a “searchable” Boolean on fields other than the primary could work. If a barcode column was searchable you could enable the barcode scanner. ... View more

Pretty much explained by the topic name, it would be great to be able to select Star Rating as a field type as way of rating things 1-5. I know there’s other ways of doing this (you could have a single select using the black star glyph) but it would be cool! ... View more

It would be great if the COUNTIF and the COUNTIFS formulas were implemented in Airtable. I use them in most of my excel spreadsheets, and it is a little frustrating not being able to use it here. Are there any plans to add more formulas? ... View more

First-off, thank you for Calendar View!!! It is great for tracking things like the drop-dead artwork release date for a bunch of jobs. But it’s not so great for tracking multiple dates associated with just one record. Would you consider (or are you developing) a single-record/multi-field calendar view? Something like that would be MUCH more useful for calendarizing complex project management schedules with individual deliverables (like say a printed catalog or photo shoot). As always, thanks!

I have several use cases where it would be helpful for users to quickly “flag” records. It would need to be such that multiple users/collaborators can flag the same record. Example use case. One table is a list of board games. We want to track how many people are interested in playing each game. Currently, we’d have to a) create a User table and then each user would have to b) choose their name from among many in a “Want To Play” field in the Game table. We’d like for them to be able to accomplish this through a single click. Since Airtable should recognize them as a unique entity through their login/username, this may already be available? I don’t see where user information can be accessed/utilized as a table/linked database, however. This functionality has limitless uses for those who want to be able to track the choices, actions, etc. of the users/collaborators. ... View more

The use of views is obviously a crucial and powerful aspect to airtable but it can very quickly get bloated, especially when a base is being shared amongst a team. My first thought is to have “private views” or “user view”, which I think reflects airtable’s goal of creating a tool that allows users to define their own tool. Within a certain table I may want to save multiple views that are really only relevant to what I want to see, and there’s no need to a) clutter up the views list for everybody and b) allow anyone else to see or edit these views. This would also solve some of the requests regarding granular permissions for views. For the public views, I still think it would be great to have a way to save the settings of a view so multiple people can use the view without changing it. For instance, if there is a view that just shows all the records, if somebody on the team starts filtering things, and doesn’t remove the filters, the next person who selects that view will see all the filters. On our team, we’ve been making different views for each user, both so our personal selections don’t effect others, and so we can look and edit the same data at the same time without affecting other users views. However, it would be great to be able to “revert” to a set saved state for a specific view. I find we don’t treat each view as a static state, but a starting off point. I know some of these issues have been discussed on the forum, but I think these types of solutions, “user views” and “revert” could solve a lot of the problems we’ve been having. Another level of organization for the views would be to have sub-folders for views. Just something else to think about! ... View more

Continuing the discussion from Changing Displayed Field in Calendar View: Just wanted to cross post this in the correct forum since it’s not a feature I couldn’t find but a feature that doesn’t exist yet. It would be nice if we could change the display field of a table to be something other than the primary key field. Thanks! ... View more

Hi. Amazing software. One thing I’ve long dreamed of is a database that can interact with spreadsheets. Add them as attachments, open them from within the database, get data from and put data in certain fields. It would be a simpler way to do some calculations. As far as report printing goes, even that could be done as an A4 spreadsheet. Thanks! ... View more
