Feature request It would be great if the expanded record view could be customised separately from the grid view. From a UX perspective, it doesn’t make sense to set the field view of the expanded single record to the field view of the entire table of records. The use case for the grid view is distinct from the expanded record view e.g. I want to see more columns of data in the grid view which may guide me to the record. Since the expanded record is effectively a form view, the layout and default fields should be further custom. I guess this is similar to what Stacker.app are doing but it would be good to have it native in Airtable. ... View more

Hey there, I want to first off note that I don’t want this to sound like a complaint. :pray: I love Airtable, and I have used it now for 3 years across countless large organisations and medium-sized clients. I use it for everything I do. But there was always one part of the UX that I always saw stressing users out, and that was the way you can just click and accidentally add a brand new record at the bottom without ever meaning to. The process to create a record was so easy it was overwhelming, because to non-experienced, pressing command + z is often not learned, so they’d see Airtable as a place where it wasn’t safe to click anywhere (A problem later solved, in part for teams, by restricting people’s ability to add records in a base, or just using a sync so nobody can create records), and let’s not even talk about creating a record which is part of a filtered view because that’s just madness squared … But when teaching Airtable, all I’ve ever heard for 3 years now is a lot of “Whoops”…“Didn’t mean to do that”…“Whoops, where did that go?”, “Whoops, how do I?”/… etc etc etc And even to experienced users, the daily mini-frustrations I, myself, have when accidentally creating a record and having to command + z was one thing I was sure that Airtable would fix sooner or later, so I didn’t let it bug me, and went on my merry way… Loving pretty much everything else about Airtable, creating thousands of accidental records along the way…“Whoops, command+z” Then August 2020 hit, and they let a team mess around with the record creation flow, causing mayhem among my clients, and colleagues alike, creating, what I think is one of the longest threads on this community yet. We all had a little moan, a little joke, and I think for the most part they changed the functionality back - even though, it’s still, in my opinion, clunkier than it was before it was messed with. But then something happened about a month back… Whereby Airtable have given the field creation process the record treatment and made all sides of their app complete and utter minefields. So today, as I created my 10th accidental field of the day, I decided to write a polite petition to ask the UX designer and Product team…nay, BEG them to fix this! Here’s my suggestion as an alternative: Keep the Plus signs. They’re nice and clear. Everyone is happy :green_circle: Please for the love of god stop messing with this empty space - This is important space that doesn’t need to be clickable 🔴 and … If you really, REALLY have to…Why not add a little friendly round button that a user can click on, so that we can all be very comfortable that this behaviour was intentional :large_blue_circle: It feels like this decision was made to increase field creation, which just seems mad to me. I typically want less fields…Not more! This is the graph of user frustration that I imagine the analytics doesn’t show: Please say it’s not just me :cry: As a side note, I’ve actually been building my bases in Google Sheets recently, and my stress levels have been decreasing as a consequence, but it still feels a little like this And as another side note…Airtable Product team - Sorry for the rant. I rant because I care :crazy_face: … You all rock :metal: ! ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? In the rollup field settings, we will be able to pull another field as value, rather the rolled up field. How does is solve the user problems? Let's say you have Tasks and Projects tables which are linked.  I want to see in the project table, the Assignee field from the last created task. Today, I can rollup the last task (with MAX(values)), but can't pull any field beside the date field. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Everyone who uses linked records. ...

The product could be a plugin or widget that allows users to create dynamic dropdown menus for single select questions in forms. Instead of a static list of options, the menu would display different options based on the user's previous selections or inputs. For example, let's say you were filling out a form to order a custom pizza. The first question might ask you to select a crust type (thin, thick, gluten-free, etc.). Once you select a crust type, the dropdown menu for the next question (e.g. sauce options) would dynamically update to display only the sauces that are available for the selected crust type. The same logic could be applied to a variety of form types, such as surveys, job applications, or product order forms. The product could be customizable to allow users to set up their own rules for dynamic option selection based on their specific form needs. Overall, this product could improve the user experience by making forms more interactive and efficient, while also reducing the likelihood of user error by only displaying relevant options. ...

Hi, It would be very usefull to have an option to group Kanban stacks by a lookup field from another table or a link field, when the multi-select option for linking to the table is turned off. I believe this should satisfy the requirement that each item on the Kanban can appear in only one stack, but also allow stacks based on lookups or links from other tables. Example : Table Employees linked to a Table Companies It would be very convenient to get a Kanban view or the Employees stacked by Company Thanks #kanban-view ... View more

Hey Airtable team, have you come across Google Data Studio? It’s a free tool that is excellent for visualising data and creating BI dashboards - a perfect companion to Airtable. Google Data Studio has ‘community connectors’ that allow users to pipe in data from third party services such as yourselves. I’m trying my hand at building a private connector for one of my bases at the moment, and it’s not too tricky. So, my request is for you folks to build a public ‘community connector’ that anyone could use to connect their Airtable data to Google Data Studio!

I love the default behavior of multiple select fields, which colorizes the items. Because I work with more complex linked fields instead, i’d love the option to colorize linked fields items similarly to multiple select fields. Best from Berlin ... View more
