A small feature request. It would be helpful if Airtable displayed the colour name when hovering over the colour-picker options when building a single/multi-select field, and in the Color Condition options - similarly to how Excel does. This would be a big help for colour-blind builders. Thanks, Chris ... View more

I’ve used Airtable for a long time and I wish it had these two simple features: Ability to reset filters/groups/sorting to a user-defined default for each view. That way I can play around but then reset to the defaults. Right now I just generate a view-only link for myself so I don’t mess up my view and refresh to get back to the default settings. It would be much better though if I could make changes in-base then either reset them or set them as the new default to lock them in. Ability to update all views when I change something. For example, if I add a new column and then resize the column then for all of my other views, that column will be tacked on to the end and will not be resized. It’s a lot of work to go through and fix that column in every view every time I want to make a minor change like resizing or adding a column. Often I just delete all of my views and recreate them, since it’s easier than manually updating them all. Anyone agree? Any workarounds that I’m not realizing? ... View more

It seems a recent change has been made so that when a person is in a base, and we select “Add Collaborators” it gives us the option to add to the Workspace or the Base. This has caused several people to mistakenly add people to a workspace instead of a base which can be a big problem if a company has private info within the workspace they don’t want people to see. It’s our request that you remove this feature. When inside the base itself no option should come up to add to workspace. This should be done from the workspace level only. Thank you, ... View more

It would be great if we could upload our own emojis to use in the checkbox field styles instead of the default options. That is all, have a great day! ... View more

Currently the FREE plan allows for unlimited commenting and read-only users. This same feature is not available on paid plans which is something I really can’t understand… It does make sense to charge per user who creates and edits data, but to charge the same “seat price” for people who may simply leave some feedback once a month really makes no sense and severly limits the use of AirTable to the point we are considering switching out. Its even more inconsistent with the fact that this is an unlimited feature on the FREE plan that gets removed on paid plans. And as far as I know commenting on paid plans has no advantages or added features at all… So why charge for something that was already free and penalize paying users?? ... View more

Hi Guys, Is there a way to invite users direct to Interface Designer and only have access for that specific Interface Designer? ... View more

May I suggest a very helpful, super simple to implement, feature? Problem: Sorting (ascending order) a single select that has empty values puts all the empties up front. Work around: Reverse the single select options order (put 1st at bottom), but this is a pain. Suggestion: You already have “Alphabetize” in Single or Multi Select, which sorts A-Z. Please enable a 2nd click to then sort Z-A. Voila! Now sort my view Descending and my empties will be at the bottom and my single selects will sort in the view correctly. A better, more intuitive solution might be to provide a switch in Sort dialog: “Sort empties at top/bottom”. ... View more

It would be amazing if we could actually restore the snapshot to the production base It’s somewhat frustrating that the snapshot confirmation message is written in a way that suggests this capability. Obviously this is no easy feat and there are landmines everywhere in development of such a product feature, but it really would be an awesome administrative feature. As a use case example, I make a snapshot of the database prior to making global modifications within a table using the CSV Import app. I do this because there is no “undo” feature once the CSV Import app’s “Save Records” button is pressed. CSV importing is a little precarious because 1) it is a GUI and whoops, my cat just ran over the keyboard, and 2) while the preview has decent overview of the merge, it does not always display all the modification details, so I am always a little nervous when using it. If I had the “freedumb” to make a mistake that I could “undo” by restoring the snapshot’s data to the production database database, well… all sorts of ridiculous might ensue… maybe this is a terrible idea 😅 Official product suggestion: remove the “to” so the confirmation message reads, “You can restore this snapshot at a later date.” 🙂 ...
