What is the proposed idea/solution? New Comment automation trigger with conditional logic Add actions to list, create, delete and update records On a JavaScript record object, add methods to list, create, delete and update comments ... How does is solve the user problems? Automation triggered by new comments could be used at the user's discretion. One example is to send a message/notification to a third-party service like Microsoft Teams. The ability to create comments from automations/scripting could be used at the user's discretion. One example is to leave a comment (as an automations user) if a record didn't meet certain conditions. The current method requires: Generate an access token with data.recordComments:read and/or data.recordComments:write scope Add a Script action to an automation Craft a fetch request for each comment operation and exposing the access token Would be much simpler to create an instance of a record object and use a method like: record.createComment()
record.deleteComment()
record.updateComment()
record.listComments() ... Who is the target audience? All users ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? Duplicate multiple rows at a time. Just like the right-click option for a single row: How does is solve the user problems? Compared to duplicating each row individually, selecting multiple rows and then duplicating them all at once saves time. How was this validated? There is currently no option to duplicate multiple rows at once. Who is the target audience? Anyone who edits Airtable tables.

What is the proposed idea/solution? What's existing is that when clicking the + button on a "Link to another record" column, it shows a "search box" and we can find an existing record, but you can only search for the linked record's value. It would be more efficient to be able to find an existing record using its other parameters (maybe the four columns that are shown). In the example image below, if I type "Notes C" or "1335", it should show Item 3. What's currently happening is I should strictly type "3" or "Item 3" to get to that linked record. It's especially inconvenient if it's a lengthy SKU or something like "A Very Long Title Like This and That Vol. 3" when I could use that linked record's other columns to find it. How does it solve user problems? It allows the user to quickly find a linked record through other parameters and makes workflow more efficient. How was this validated? The first four columns on the find field are the linked table's first four columns too, so if the user wants to "customize" the first four columns, they can trigger "Limit record selection to a view" when making that linked record column to use that specific view's first four columns. Who is the target audience? Users who use linked records a lot with multiple useful columns.

Seems like a no-brainer to me: It would be incredibly helpful to have an auto-generated legend for interfaces that shows users what the colors represent in the view. As it is now, the coloring helps to visually provide some differences but doesn't contain any usable information unless you can easily recall what 6 or 7 different colors mean. I think this would benefit most users! Bonus points for adding a color palette that is friendly for users with color vision issues.

We have an interface for our project management Airtable base, which shows project data filtered by a record list. As our base grows, the page has grown with it and is quite long, split into useful sections. I would like a way to hyperlink to different sections within the interface, like using div IDs and # hyperlinks in html. This could tie in to a standard button, as currently used for navigation to external URLs.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Add a Feature so you can change the background color of cells and whole colums manually or based on condition matching. How does is solve the user problems? Design of Tables and List Views will get more clean and easier to use / navigate. Also Users can color cells based on their content (like positive=green, negative=red, ...) How was this validated? It's basic visual Design theories. Who is the target audience? Nearly everyone, at least every user who needs to navigate through big airtable bases & list views.

Airtable finally added this calendar month as a date filter option which is great, however there needs to be a last calendar month instead of just last month. We need to submit every month our expenses from the previous month. So for example today, I need to be able to see all expenses from January (i.e. last calendar month). How it is now if I do last month, it will show me expenses from Jan 14 - Feb 14 which is not useful.

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.

Greater control over where a user is directed post form submission. Who is the target audience? Web dev's and website users.
