What is the proposed idea/solution? Instead of having the open or expanded records in the Interface being a top-to-bottom endless scoll, I would like  to be able to pages or have the sections be flip to side-by-side How does is solve the user problems? Sometimes the top-to-bottom scroll is not user friendly, having separation of sections into clickable pages in expanded records can make it cleaner How was this validated? Just use existing Sections and make them side by side Who is the target audience? ... ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? The proposed idea is to show different record details templates within the same interface list depending on specific record criteria, such as a single-select field. For example, if one record's status is "Order in Backlog," when clicked the record detail template would be different than another record with the status "Delivered."  How does is solve the user problems? This would allow for fewer interface lists. In other words, we could collapse multiple lists into a single list without losing the benefit of unique record-detail templates associated with multiple lists. This would help organize reduce "Interface fatigue," where too many Interfaces creates confusion and fatigue. How was this validated? Personal experience. Who is the target audience? Anyone that uses Airtable Interfaces looking for more simplicity. ... 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. ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? When a user is completing a form there should be a restriction added that if the end date is before the start date it can't be submitted.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Please add an option for expand from just # of days selection in the automation trigger timeframe, but hours as well. This would make it easy to overrride all automatic (but delayed 1 day) emails from being sent out by Airtable at midnight GMT. How does is solve the user problems? Not ideal in most businesses for automatic (but delayed one day) emails to go out at midnight GMT. We want automatic emails to seem generated by a real person in real-time, not adversely sent too early in the morning and by a automatic system. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Any business that sends automated emails to clients/customers! ... View more

Background We have a backend base and have various interfaces for certain stakeholders. There are two collaboration issues I am running into 1) linking to a record and 2) commenting within a record.  Linking to a record in an email automation. When a new ticket comes in an automation runs to send an email to the relevant stakeholder. One feature of the automation is to link to the "Airtable Record URL." If the stakeholder only has interface access, not base access, the link only brings them to the base, not the interface.  Commenting within a record. When commenting in another user, who only has interface access, the user receives an email. When that user clicks the link in the email it goes to a black page. This should navigate them to their interface view and the comment should appear.    What is the proposed idea/solution? Linking to a record in an email automation should bring users who only have interface access to the interface, not the base.  Commenting in a user with interface access only, should bring them to the interface and not to a page where they request access to the base.  How does is solve the user problems? This prompts them to request access and does not bring the stakeholder to the interface to view the record. Is there a way to link to the record within in the interface? How was this validated? We have tested and there does not seem to be a way to link to the record only within the interface and not the base.  Who is the target audience? Those users who may only have interface access and not base access.    Thank you. Eljay  ... View more

When creating an Interface, you can choose which fields to be addes from the start. The "pick elements" is not searchable, nor can you order the fields. Both would be very timesaving features.  ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Add additional timescales to the timeline views - particularly at the small end of the scale, for planning day-to-day tasks and single day events. Currently the smallest timescale is one day split into hours. We need 12 hour and ideally 6 hour timescales too, split into smaller chunks (ideally 5 min, but would be okay with 15).   How does is solve the user problems? Currently the timeline view is clunky and difficult when planning items with only an hour or two duration, and the view doesn't provide enough room for details to be written into the box. Adding smaller timescales would fix this problem with minimal additional work for the development team and a huge increase in usability at the smaller timescales.   How was this validated? Common sense and regular user frustration.   Who is the target audience? Anyone with a need to plan items/tasks/events over a smaller time scale using the timeline view. ... View more
