The search functionality (if I am not mistaken) currently indexes only across actual columns in each table / base. In case users frequently use the comment function on records (e.g. sales teams), would be great if the search function also indexes comments on each record. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? To have the capability to send a page designer form to a record  How does is solve the user problems? The page designer currently only supports printing as an export option, if I were able to export to a record that would be incredibly more efficient. The current way to attach a page designer document to a record is by "printing" the doc, then saving as a pdf, then uploading to a dedicated attachment field. I should be able to send a doc straight back to a record in my base.   How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? I'm currently using page designer with interfaces for my fulfillment use case, it has some serious potential if a litte more work was put into it. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Change the macOS desktop app icon to be a rounded square. The current icon looks out of place among other macOS app icons. How does is solve the user problems? It improves the appearance of the Airtable icon in users' docks and launchpad. The icon could be replaced with the iOS app icon, which is a rounded square.   How was this validated? All macOS apps are supposed to have rounded square icons. Who is the target audience? All users of the Airtable macOS desktop app. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? When populating automation filters there is the option for choosing a static value or a dynamic value. This would be great to add ability to switch between static/dynamic values in regular View filters... How does is solve the user problems? I currently have a large number of fields used to compare data in 2 fields and flag when something doesn't match for example. It would cut down greatly on the number of fields I have if I was able to use the dynamic setting and adjust my View filters to say if Field 1 does not equal Field 2, then show in this view.  How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Smaller teams needing to manually QA various datapoints without the need for additional field counts... ... View more

Commenting would be far more helpful if it behaved in Airtable as it does in products like G Suite and Office 365 – comments can be resolved and therein no longer displayed as an action item (in the case of Airtable denoted by the small number in the far left column of the record). ... View more

Occasionally I find the need to be able to add a general comment to an entire table (not base, not record).  Would be great if you can add a function to the table drop-down, like 'add attachments'.  The attachment might be a PowerPoint presentation providing context for the table, and excel file explaining calculations, etc. ...

Hi airtable! I have a list (an array) of items in two columns. Each row represents two different lists (one in each column). I’d like to be able to compare the two columns and remove what is common in both. For example Row 1: Column 1: Apple, Orange, Pineapple, Kiwi Column 2: Apple, Kiwi Result: Column 3: Orange, Pineapple Row 2: Column 1: Banana, Orange, Grape, Kiwi, Pineapple, Passion Fruit Column 2: Orange, Grape, Pineapple Result: Column 3: Banana, Kiwi, Passion Fruit etc. The general functionality is to be able to compare (two or more arrays) and perform some kind of action. Is this something that could be worked on? Let me know if you’d like more details. There are a few other posts here from people who have similar requests and ideas: Removing specific values from arrays (this is mine in support) Array intersect formula Using Rollup to check on completed tasks? ...

Following our discussion at Soon You'll Need a CDN - #15 by Ambroise_Dhenain Context With the upcoming change that will transform the currently public CDN into an internal CDN (where attachments can only be accessed from inside Airtable), Airtable customers are looking for a way to keep some attachments public. Proposal This could be gracefully handled with the ability to enable the “public CDN” option, for any “Attachment” field. Also, the ability to specify into which field to store the URL might be useful, the goal being able to know the public url of the attachment (one that doesn’t change!). Attachments configured this way would be properly stored into a public CDN, designated for that use case. The public CDN feature would have its own pricing and limits based on the customer’s plan. Motivations I’ve read that “Airtable doesn’t want to become a public CDN”, and that it shouldn’t be used for this purpose. I beg to differ slightly: Airtable doesn’t want to become a public CDN for free. The real issue at hand is for Airtable to store the attachments of all customers and support its cost. Also, there are real privacy-related issues about the current public CDN, because all attachments are automatically made public, which might not be GDPR-compliant, depending on what documents are made public this way. Aggravate by the fact there is no way to disable a public link ourselves to fix that manually. Airtable could imagine a few things: A free tier for public attachments, based on the customer’s plan (ex: 100 public attachments, 1000 public attachments for Pro, etc.) Something like “pay-as-you-go” where customers would pay additionally based on the number of public attachments stored, or size, or a mix of both (KISS, please) Make all attachments private by default (no public CDN, or more so “no long-lasting links”), while allowing us to enable public CDN (or so, “long-lasting links”) for the few fields where we really need it (and are ready to pay for it) Bring more options for Attachment fields where the public CDN has been enabled, such as: The ability to manually refresh the link (invalidate the old one, provide a new one) The ability to have “self-invalidating” links, that would expire after a set date (static or dynamic) It would make sense to propose such “public CDN” feature, which would be a good complement to the “internal CDN” that can only be accessed from within Airtable. Assuming it has its own pricing and managed differently, it would both provide great value, while forcing customers to only enable the public CDN for the few fields we need to have public. It wouldn’t be a hindrance to security, GDPR, or performances. I really hope such a system will be designed, better sooner than later, as it would help with the upcoming transition quite a lot. :crossed_fingers: ... View more
