Hi I am finding I am using Zapier to automate stuff in a client project and it would be much more useful if the integration were of the Instant type (as some other database products have with Zapier). I have also been reading about Push Zaps which can be triggered directly and don’t need a trigger - if it were possible to add an after update event to fields and tables (and perhaps a button object as well) which would allow an Airtable user to specify a Zap to run with that event. Example use cases I have an app where a user can add an article to a table and the app needs to then work out which clients are due to receive that article based upon some logic (Javascript largely) in a Zap. I specialise in HR software generally - in a leave app you need to be able to create records for each day of a leave (so that you can properly analyse it). This involves comparing the date for each day with the employee’s working pattern and also a list of public holidays to determine which ones are actually leave days. This should happen immediately when the ‘parent’ record is created. I believe that this would greatly increase the flexibility of the product. ... View more

I’m trying to create a time sheet for my employees in airtable and one thing I wish I could do with the page designer is limit the records that are displayed within a linked record table is to limit the results to a view from the linked table, that way we can filter out old time sheet entries and only display ones from last week. There is an option to sort the data in the table, but no option to limit the data to a specific view. That would be helpful! Let me know if you agree! ... View more

This would solve many issues with ‘New’ records disappearing in Kanban Views (because they don’t meet a Filter requirement). Would also make Airtable a fierce task management tool (finally!) ... View more

I see that dependent on the plan you have Bases have from 2 weeks to 1 year revision history log. Are there any plans to extend this to indefinite? It is sometimes useful to check the timeline of changes and inputs and if this could be tracked throughout the life of the base this would add to its probity. ... View more

Hi, I saw this was marked as resolved by changing the browser locale… however I’m using the Airtable app in MacOSX and I regularly switch between three different browsers. I don’t want to set all of my browsers to a different locale, as I’m in the US and want to continue all other US settings… I just believe Europe got it right when they start the week on Monday… as the week actually starts on Monday. Most applications allow users to pick and choose base level localization preferences. I believe Airtable is mature enough to add this level of features. Thanks! ... View more

Just a suggestion to add a horizontal line that represents the current time when displaying any of the week, day views. Apple calendar has it and it’s just great! It helps me to keep track what to do next and not worry about the time ... View more

Linking records seems to me to be the least exploited, most powerful feature on Airtable. I love the feature, but it seems to lack some continuity, IMO. Almost a head-scratcher to neglect. If I can say so respectfully. :confused: I’m looking for three very closely related things: If you can set a record link column to ‘single select’, why can you not arrange Kanban views by that column? This would make things amazingly easy in several of my boards. (For example, I have an phylogeny studies board where I group animals into a separate table of families; currently, I have to have a separate single-select list, and frequently update them to match so I can view and organize in Kanban view.) It makes a lot of sense to be able to group by self-joins in a sort of hierarchical or nested view. This is basically the number one feature I’m feeling the need for. Similar to here. Hierarchical views? If this needs to be a dedicated ‘parent’ type of link for that to work, or if it requires single-select, I can see either working. I would love a mind-map view of records; really, just something like a ‘node-edge’ sort of view, edges being linked records, drawn as a line between them, ‘defining’ the relationship by the column’s name. For example, as above with the ‘parent’ self-join; or a ‘smells like’ or whatnot. Or, “Bilbo Baggins” (node/record) is “Uncle To…” (edge/link) “Frodo Baggins” (node) and “Companion of…” (edge) “Galdalf the Grey” (node). If it could see across tables, or ‘auto-organize’ into common formats that would be awesome.But really I’m just hoping for basic self-joins only; showing the checked types of eligible relationships, and expanding records when clicked, changing attributes/links as dragged, etc. similar to the Kanban view. (Look at ‘Tiddlymaps’ for ‘Tiddlywiki’ for an idea of what that might look like. Super simple, not a ton of features, but really robust because of the underlying wiki ‘pages’ and tagging structure. I can see this working wonders with how records already work.) …I realize this last one is a lot bigger of an undertaking. But even a similar ‘group by’ view with a little more intelligent node-edge type relationships would go a long way. Thank you for your awesome work!! This literally has changed my life. …please notice me, senpai. ... View more
