Love Airtable, But the linked records always have same color (Blue). However, since Airtable allows to generated Dynamic colors for different records in a table. Same colors could be used in linked records. That would make it look awesome and so user friendly. So If I have a Team Table and I assign Color - Red to Team member named “Sendy”. Now wherever this Record is linked in another tables, the name “Sendy” renders as Red. Thanks!

A short list of things that I still can’t believe I can’t re-order in Airtable: view filter terms view grouping fields automations (!) Bonus points if we could also turn on/off filter terms and grouping fields w/o having to delete them and re-add them again. With literally everything else in Airtable re-orderable (in a very slick way), why can’t these be re-ordered? Dustin

It would be nice if there was an option to choose a formatting which includes the day of the week. Instead of 1/1/2020 --> monday 1/1/2020

When turning off ‘Allow linking to multiple records’ on the to corresponding ‘linked fields’ in two tables it is still possible to link multiple records to one. This is because only the relationship is only restricted from the active table, so it is possible to do this: Which then creates multiple entries here: Ideally, you would be restricted from doing this.

I know this is a spreadsheety thing, and falls apart once relational, but when actively editing in a table view, it’d be REALLY helpful to highlight cells that are missing info, or for which the data has not yet been fully confirmed. Question marks don’t work in number fields, so that;s not an option… Basically we need a way to identify data that’s near-final. Thanx!

It would be really nice if you could hit something like ctrl+shift+enter to insert a new row, and then start in the first column to speed up data entry.
I find myself having to shift+tab all the way back to the first cell to start on the next line.

Right now if you have a column you can see the sum, average, median, min, max, range, and few other summaries of every record in that column. One thing I think would be very useful for formula columns is to apply that formula to all columns. So if the formula for column 3 is Column 1 / Column 2… then the summary applies the same formula to the sum of column 1 and the sum of column 2. The closest thing that I can come up with is “average” but that isn’t accurate.

I use Airtable to help manage my personal & business accounting needs (instead of a dedicated accounting software like Mint, QuickBooks, or Wave) because I have full customization of the platform.
The biggest trouble with using Airtable to track my finances is that I have to manually enter each “transaction.” If Airtable used a 3rd party service like Yodlee to allow users to import their bank transactions automatically it would a very useful feature.
At that point, the only other feature Airtable would need to truly make it a fully customizable alternative to Mint or QuickBooks would be “reporting tools” but somebody already made that feature request.
Other than the lack of reporting tools, The

I’m having a conversation with my boss about uploading photos to our department’s airtable. I find being able to track a story via a visual extremely helpful, but he doesn’t want to add an additional storage place when we already keep high res versions in Zenfolio. I wish there was a way to set a url field as an “image” field in the way that the attachment field automatically shows images. That way I could link to the original files while maintaining the usefulness of having an image associated with an Airtable item.
