I’m imagining being able to access the data in a linked record in a similar way to how you access child properties of objects in many programming languages. Example You have an ORDERS table and a PRODUCTS table. PRODUCTS contains Item Name, Item Code and Price columns. The ORDERS table has a Linked Record field called Products. You could then access the Products properties within a formula field in the ORDERS table like this: Products.{Item Name} Products.{Item Code} Products.Price ... View more

Ciao, It would be great if you could configure linked fields to only populate with records that match certain conditions. Those conditions being values entered in other fields on the same table. EG: Table one Field One = Retailer Field two = Product Type Field Three = Item ID/SKU = this field is a linked record field which only allows the selection of records whose fields match/contain the values entered in it’s shared table. EG: Field 1 Retailer = Allen’s Discount Grocery Emporium Field 2 Product Type = Food Field 3 Item ID/SKU, should only let me select Hot dogs, apples, bread… It should not let me select Rodent Killer XXX manufactured by Howie Liu’s Elimination Station. For me, this seems to be air tables biggest limitation. ... View more

Currently, I have to filter my to-do list by date on mobile. Then on the rare occurrence, I do view my to-do list on the calendar format on the desktop of the primary field is the date it’s pretty useless :frowning: What would be ideal would be to have the calendar view available on mobile. That way I’d be able to view my to-do list in the same format whether I’m on mobile or desktop. Thanks. ... View more

Hi. I am currently in testing mode with Airtable and have to say: I really like it. There is one thing which I currently came up with and I would like to share: New field type “Action Button” which triggers an action (the one I am thinking of is something like mail the record to someone, sending any kind of answer/feedback … there maybe more actions) which could be very useful esp. when your table is shared via html.

I’d like to suggest and request a new, COLOR field, that can be set to accept various color values/standards, previewing the resulting color full-cell. At minimum, I’d expect this field to support the same color strings/syntax as the current Color Palette block, but ideally many more color standards. A deal with Pantone/X-Rite would allow PMS/TCX lookup, something we’ve had to build-out manually, and without the benefit of any real end-to-end color management. Adding this would make Airtable the immediate leader within the creative/product sector. We deal with color calculations daily. Thanks!! A. ... View more

Problem: Sorting a select field puts blanks at the top.  Often, we want blanks to sort at bottom. Suggested Solution: Sort the select field in descending order in the view.  That puts blanks at bottom.  However, then your select values are in reverse order.  If you could sort the select field options (in the field) in descending order then all would be good in the world:  blanks would be at the bottom and options would be at the top sorted in ascending order. Implementation: Best part, implementation is super easy.  Currently you can only sort options in a select field in ascending order.  Just enable clicking on the sort icon to toggle between ascending and descending sort of options in select/multi-select fields. ...
