Swimlane in Kanban

I am surprised that no one requested this before, but no kanban board is useful without Swimlanes :slightly_smiling_face: Like Kanban “Grouping Field” where we can appoint it to a field of type “Collaborator” or “Single Select”, Swimlanes should be defined based on the desired field type

HTML emails are great, why not offer a plain text version 🤔 ? 🚀Having pure text inside the body of the email allows you to better integrate Airtable with other software. For example in the creation of Tasks on Asana 😎 👻This is a mockup of how the interface might present this choice. 👉Please rate this feature, it's too cool. Thank you

Frustratingly, we can't create Grouped Logic, with AND and OR operators within Conditional Automation Actions. The above screenshot shows this limitation, where all conditions are locked into either AND or OR. I'd like to see this work identically to other areas within Airtable, where we can apply grouped logic nested within AND and OR operators. The above screenshot shows the grouping within a Grid View filter. I'd like to see the same mechanism for Conditional Logic within Automations.

Hi, One of the comments from the team at work is that the grid views are messy when it's a whole page of 'pill' shapes, particularly when they're all different widths (based on the text length of each option). Is there the ability to shade/colour the entire cell instead of just a pill shape? And if not, can the width of the pills be based on the width of the column instead of the text length, so they're clear and consistent regardless of the dropdown option selected? Regards, Andrew

I’m really excited about the recently released calendar views. Thank you for including this in AirTable. It really helps to visualize certain data that’s associated with date and time. That said, I’m curious if you plan on supporting date ranges? My use case is that I track events that are happening in the world, specifically film festivals. I have a table that contains a list of 1200 film festivals and their start and end dates. I’d love to be able to see the ability to create a view that shows the range of dates that the festivals are occurring. Right now I can only choose either the start or end date, which is helpful, but doesn’t show me overlapping dates between the different events.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Allow greater customisation of the Grid element in both interfaces and automations, in 3 ways: First, in the same way that field on an interface can have a 'friendly' display name, allow the same for grid columns (interface & automations). Second, allow the primary key field to be hidden (interfaces only, as this already exists in automations). Third, allow column order to be manually set (in interfaces a workaround is to create a view, but in automations there is no workaround, and column ordering is determined by when fields were added to the base table). How does is solve the user problems? Allows for greater customisation of grids, and aligns the grid element functionality more closely to that of other interface and automation elements. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Developers

What is the proposed idea/solution? To be able to turn off notifications for all records within a database besides when you are @ mentioned How does is solve the user problems? As an administrator I create 100's of records and and constantly bombarded with emails everytime there is a comment or change. How was this validated? This would make the program more user friendly as previous systems we have used such as Monday.com have this feature Who is the target audience? Everyone

I find this feature invaluable in Excel, and I would love to see it implemented for Airtable. Currently the only conditional format coloring option just sticks a little colored box next to the main record name. For my team’s purposes, that’s not particularly useful. What would be awesome is if we could get individually colored cells - here’s a couple examples if a cell contains the word “hello”, that cell is colored green in the background if a cell contains a date that is within the next 2 days, that cell is colored red. I’d also love an option to shut off automatic coloring when something is grouped/sorted/filtered, as it’s distracting and not always necessary… but I guess that’s a product suggestion for a different post 🙂

Someone posted about this in support but I think it belongs here in feature requests. Please please please add the ability to break up forms with text that is not a question. I know Airtable is not a survey tool but this would make a HUGE difference in so many of my use cases, which depend on having volunteers do data entry through forms. Thank you!!

What is the proposed idea/solution? User would like to limit the items show to unique values only. I.e. when a lookup field references a multi-select/single-select field from a linked record. Suppose there is 20 linked records, each of which has a multiselect cell filled in with 3 available options, Name 1, Name 2, Name 3. Supposed in the list of 20 linked records, there are 7 with the name 1 option selected, 9 with the name 2, and 4 with name 3. In the lookup field, I will see all iterations listed out, ("name 1", "name 1", "name 1", etc.... "name 3." totaling a string of 20 names. Ideally the user would like to just see "name 1" once, "name 2" once, and "name 3" once, since all of the other iterations are just duplicates. If the items are not unique, they are not duplicated in the string. The best way to do this would be to add an additional toggle switch for "Limit the items shown to unique values." How does is solve the user problems? Consolidates data, making it both more printable, easier to read, and removes the need to have an additional formula field to accomplish the same effect. How was this validated? Not sure if this question is applicable. Who is the target audience? Any user primarily working in project management, task delegation, and anyone who like to run automated reports.
