What is the proposed idea/solution? A button or link to quickly download a CSV table of the data underlying a chart. How does this solve the user problems? The chart tools in Airtable are great. However, there are many times when charts need to be recreated in PowerPoint or another program (to customize formatting, to combine with information from outside Airtable, to add to professionally designed reports, etc.). As far as I know, this currently can only be done by manually creating a summary table in the other program – or, in some cases, by using formulas, automation, etc. in Airtable to create summary tables automatically. Both are time-consuming and prone to errors. If a user could instead just quickly download a summary table to paste into another program, it could greatly improve efficiency and accuracy.

We use RabbitMQ a lot to take action when certain record events happen. For example, when users are created in a table, this sends a message which triggers account creation in other systems. At the moment, we use scripting automations to send POST requests to our RabbitMQ HTTP API. This is cumbersome, and there's no way to listen to events without creating webhooks. We would love first-class AMQP integration in Airtable. This would look like: In automations, the ability to send an AMQP message with a routing key and payload Ability to listen to an AMQP topic and take action

What is the proposed idea/solution? Make the Page Designer extension bi-directional. How does is solve the user problems? This would allow a user that creates reports from records to make changes to a record and the resulting report directly on the report itself. You could then potentially make edits to hundreds of fields on a record from a single page view that is highly customizable. I find there is far too much scrolling required when there are many fields that need to be filled in or changed, so the Page Designer extension seems like the easiest way to make the most customized and condensed views of a record as possible, and things like text fields, check boxes, and drop down fields could be very easily manipulated from this type of view. How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? Users that create reports from records

In Interface designer, when I am configuring my record detail, I keep trying to re-order them the way I do in views by dragging and dropping in the list butwhen I click the row it pulls it off the list. Might be a change to make it not look like that fields option or to let you move fields in that way.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Tables, fields, and views can have descriptions. I'd like sections to have descriptions, too. How does is solve the user problems? I group several similar views into section. These similar views have similar descriptions. Moving the duplicate parts of the descriptions into a section-level description would clean things up. How was this validated? Example: Instead of these redundant view descriptions: Move the duplicate info into a section description: Who is the target audience? Users of view sections

It would be great if we had an able/disable option to let users add options to a single/multi select fields when filling in a form.
