I would love the ability to lock a table to prevent any further editing, but still maintain the ability to view, sort, filter that table. I have many records with tables per financial year, locking these would prevent errors by accident while still maintaining access. ... View more

I am working on a base where I want to produce a ‘page’ for records with a table of linked records which could contain anything from 30 to 250+ records. It would be great if this could be accommodated in page designer by allowing the table to be variable length and to paginate sensibly by repeating headings on new pages etc. ... View more

I miss the possibility to sort entries by dates without putting the entries without dates first. It is not logical for tasks use for example. Similar feature would be the ability to group by a field separating in two groups : entries with this field empty and entries with this field not empty. For example, entries without dates and entries with dates. ... View more

The expanded record view uses only a small portion of the screen, even on biz size laptop is only half the screen. For long text boxes (which we use a lot of) this really reduces the editability/readability of fields with a lot of content. Can the restraints on that Expanded data box have an override arrow that fits to screen? I know you can expand long text boxes from within the grid view to a slightly better size, but you are not really in the record card view, and is still not great. Thanks! ... View more

I’m lovin’ Airtable, but, in grid view, I’m not thrilled with those little icons that appear beside very field name to indicate what type of field it is. Most are text fields, so it looks as if I have fields named “A First Name” and “A City”. I’d like a configuration switch to switch them off. ... View more

In Excel, you can use the ROW() function to return the row number of the current cell. A feature like this in Airtable would be useful, as I have a list of events that I want to recalculate their date depending on the order that the user has the rows in. I can’t use the autonumber feature, because that doesn’t renumber when the user reorders the rows. There doesn’t appear to be any way to get Airtable to work out what the order of records is, and calculate a formula based on that. ... View more

I would like to build a database that has records in flux and records that are locked. The records that are in flux–the current period, whether monthly, quarterly, or annually, would be separated from locked records by a closing date (or other number/field I suppose) that determines the cutoff or closing whereby that prior records are deemed complete and not subject to change. So I am imagining a field type that is “Closing number” that could be a date or some other ordinal type that could be included in a table, and then an option under the “+” tab at the upper right of the menu, which offer “Closing date”. If you selected “Closing date” from the menu, you could choose a particular date or number, and all prior records would be locked. You could reverse this, but only after getting a warning message and perhaps entering your password. This same method could be used to protect sensitive information as well: You could have a field type: “Protection” and designate user levels to access/view/modify the information. ... View more

Now that Blocks are out of beta, I’d love to suggest an alternate palette. We’d kill to have a “Dark Mode”, a la Klipfolio or Numerics, for full-screen display on a 4K TV. Related, we’d love the ability to get HTML embed code per block, again in two UI skins, one “Dark”. This would allow us to use native Airtable design within other dashboard platforms (so long as they support embeds). Thank you! A. ... View more

It would be great to allow specified groups of fields to be repeated by the user. i.e. duplicate fields in form view. ... View more
