I’m the primary builder of our team’s base, and I want my team members to feel more comfortable contributing records.
In a single base, it would be tremendously helpful to have space in the GUI for adding documentation about specific base elements such as…
individual tables - i would use this to explain the purpose of a table, identify the content steward, and highlight important linkages
individual views - i would use this to explain to my team members why this view exists, list the URLs of where it’s embedded offsite, and things to consider before making changes
columns - lower priority for me, but i could see this being useful metadata for users who consume data via API
In the meantime, I’m adding an extra table for my base called “About this base” so that I can explain to my team what’s up with the various references and views
AirTable keeps getting better and better. Huge fan here. You guys rock!
