Imagine a panel above the tables that toggled a group of tables! This way, you could have big bases organized a lot better. I have some bases which have a different sections that are co-related.. it'd be nice to organize the "Enrollment" section as separate from the "Registration" section and as separate from the "Billing" Section without having to do complex base syncing. I like having everything from one business in one base but the table tabs fill up quick!

What is the proposed idea/solution? ...User is able to select multiple Views. Any changes applied to the first selected View are applied to the other selected Views (e.g. Column Width, Column Order, "Hide fields", "Filter", "Group", "Sort", "Color", "Row Height") How does is solve the user problems? ...Currently the process is manual for each View. This can be extremely time consuming and prone to human error, that can affect Synced Tables. Who is the target audience? ...Users who have more than one View per Table, especially users with a large number of Views per Table.

Just as @Sean_Murphy1 asked here, the ability to have conditional data in interfaces. Sean's Example: if you’re tracking network outages you might use one field to specify that the cause is a power outage, in which case you would want other fields to appear that let you specify when the power outage started and ended (so you can track UPS runtime when the power goes out, and site recovery time when it comes back.) My example: the attached has an "answer type" field but I still have to have all available fields (currency, text, number, etc) for the view to work with all the data types. If I could add conditions to fields (IF Answer Type CONTAINS Text, show Text Answer), only the needed fields would show and it make for a much cleaner user experience.

What is the proposed idea/solution? A built in extension that provides the ability to bulk download attachments. Filtering which records include and also renaming files based on any column of the table. How does is solve the user problems? Sometimes we need to export the contents of an attachment column. Doing this one by one it’s not efficient at all. Downloading data in csv it’s not enough. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? The ability to define a condition for an interface field to be visible How does is solve the user problems? I have a table that includes one record type. However, the table is populated by two different sources that contain different types of information. The current interface page, with all fields visible, looks noisy and can be confusing to internal users. If I had the ability to hide empty fields, it would be a major UI/UX improvement. How was this validated? It has been requested internally by several users. Who is the target audience? Internal company users.

The new List View is great. But there's no option to share it, as there is with every other view. Can this functionality be added? Particularly hoping for the embed function to be enabled...

What is the proposed idea/solution? Let us create custom terms for records in tables in addition to selecting from the predefined list.  How does is solve the user problems? The list provides a great starting point for record names, but too often terms aren't available. For instance, Phone Number isn't an available term, despite having a record field type of Phone Number, and neither is Number. This translates to the interfaces any time an 'Add Record' button appears to a linked record field, which may cause confusion if an intuitive term is not available. This is a relatively small ask (that I do not understand the technical requirements of at all, so please don't misunderstand me) that would go a long way to improve the user experience, especially to those users less tech-savvy than others. How was this validated? Every single time I've searched for a term in the pre-defined list of terms for records, I almost always come up empty. Who is the target audience? Moreso end users unfamiliar with Airtable who see a button to add/create/link records.

Context: our Airtable account hits the automation run limit every month. I believe we've upgraded to the plan with the maximum allowable amount of automation runs. FWIW: I would pay more for more automation runs, and would pay a lot for unlimited automation runs. Situation: There is a limit/cap on automations that can be run, per month There are a number of different automations based on a variety of triggers, across tables and bases Idea would address these two issues: Cannot currently maintain and/or optimize for a functional account, that will remain under the monthly automation limit, without access to the centralized automation run log Cannot currently troubleshoot or trace an issue when an automation is running, but it's not clear what is triggering it/in which table Thanks in advance for considering.

This would enable ability to highlight/bring attention to specific comments in long text fields. This should be functional in both Data and Interface layers.

What is the proposed idea/solution? It would be very helpful if we could simultaneously meet multiple conditions in an automation. How does is solve the user problems? We often send out Emails to users via automations. The content depends on a set of parameters. At the moment we need to build endless combinations of conditions in order to work with the existing hierarchy of how the conditions are executed. As soon as the first condition is met, all other possibilities are no longer looked at by the automation. Looking at all conditions and executing all conditions that are met would totally liberate the way we need to use automations.
