[Embeddable page designer] An embed block - and I don't mean the option to embed blocks

Mathias_Elmose · ‎Oct 01, 2018

I would find it very useful if there was an embed block that would be kind of similar to the page designer except that instead of printing it would be for embedding it into a website. The use case would be showing records from Airtable in a more customized way that would feel and look more just like a part of the webpage. Say I wanted to show a table with all our employees. Right now it would be via an embed view (which is great) but if I could design it to look and feel just like our website it would be very useful

It would be great to make automation error messages more sophisticated. For instance it would be very helpful to build an error log in a table in order to assign errors to certain users or mark them as resolved etc. (at the moment the person who triggered the automation receives the error notification / email). Especially when dealing with more complex bases and / or using scripts in automations, errors are pretty common and a useful part of the development process. At the moment unfortunately not useful enough 🙂

Currently it is not possible to add tables between bases without loosing the link between the linked tables. Since it is easy to Duplicate a Base now, it should be easy to combine 2 bases together. Benefit of this would be to have control of the structure from one base to another. Example: You have many bases that you need to combine without starting from the beginning. Right now we can use Zapier to move data around but nothing to control structure of the tables.

I love the embeddable Form option for information collection, however, it’s almost impossible to style the form using CSS since I can’t Inspect the code. It just shows as an over-all object rather than individual text and box components. I would be nice to be able to know the div id’s or classes in order to make it appear a part of your site’s type faces and colors. If this is an option already, no amount of googling or searching the community/support has turned up anything for me.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Have a privacy field that requires certain permissions or password protected for information stored such as social security numbers. Who is the target audience? - services industry where private information from the clients is collected.

I’m really underwhelmed by the lack of pivot table functionality, which are basic features in google sheets and excel: Sorting (Can only sort by field used for rows, why not sort by other fields not shown?) Also mentioned here: Sort Pivot table by Column values Exporting Formatting Mark-up I’m sure there’s other stuff missing that I’m not running into yet.

This would be a very useful feature to prevent people from accidentally entering dates that have already passed, or to restrict to a certain period of time (e.g. no more than two weeks ahead). Additionally if you have a form with several date fields, you could have conditional restrictions on what date could be entered based on a previous date entered (e.g. a finish date would always have to be after a start date).

hey, Linked fields populated by formula !!!!!! I think it's so obvious and self-explanatory for everyone that has ever dealt with relational databases. this is a feature needed for yesterday, it just makes no sense we need to use all those workarounds and automations to get there, and although product is already so advance this is still not available :((

When I used to use salesforce, I was able to manage a lot of data with charts/graphs. I could click sections of a graph (a piece of a pie/donut chart bar graph, dot on a scatterplot, etc) and it would show the underlying data tables that was being summarized by the chart/dashboard. This would be a very powerful feature in interface designer for managers and understanding the underlying data in a dashboard.

What is the proposed idea/solution? For bar charts, where we can group field summaries, I propose the ability to limit them to "top x" where x is a custom number field. How does this solve the user problems? If there are a lot of records at play during grouping, then grouping field summaries do not visually work. For example below is a bar chart where: y-axis is the total number of pre-orders x-axis is the release date months the chart shows the sum of different orders it is grouped by brands Ideally, if I want to only see the top 5 brands pre-ordered that month, I would input "top 5" so there would only be five bars, and the rest are "others." Additionally, it would be great to have the groups sorted in ascending or descending order by aggregate or alphabetically. It's best if we can limit it to what we think is aesthetically plausible. How was this validated? Grouping is dependent on the field summary's aggregate. If we can limit lookup fields to last x or first x, I think this should be possible too. Who is the target audience? Interface users. People who like charts.
