“Expand Record” would be ten times more useful if I could configure field visibility so that more fields are visible automatically in expanded view than are visible in grid view. I’d like to be able to create compact grid views showing (say) six fields, and when user clicks the “expand record” button (or types Space), the expanded view dialog would show all six of the grid fields PLUS other fields per my configuration for that expanded view. I am aware that there is a button in expanded that says something like “14 hidden fields” and I can click that button to see those hidden fields. But in addition to being an extra pain in the neck, this is less helpful to my users than it needs to be. Airtable often requires the use of utility fields that users never need to view. I’d like to be able to continue hiding THOSE fields, but show others that would be useful to users. I can think of different ways this might implemented. The easiest way that would work for me, would be to have TWO columns of show/hide toggle buttons in the hidden fields setup dialog: one for the grid and one for the expanded view. In other words, add a second column next to the yellow column highlighted in the screenshot below. I do not think it is necessary or even very helpful to be able to show a field in expanded view that is NOT shown in grid view. So if the field is not visible in the grid, the option to show it in the expanded view would be disabled. Nor would it be necessary or helpful to be able to order the fields differently. I’d just like to be able to toggle some of the fields to show in expanded view but be hidden in grid. I’d be very very happy to get what I’m asking for above. But since I’m asking, it would be fantastic if it were also possible to create sections in the expanded view — even if it were a matter simply of inserting a dividing line. ... View more

Airtable team, We have a relatively large team using Airtable across multiple departments. It would be awesome if the Collaborator field could be pared down to just the collaborators in a particular department. For instance, if we have a Collaborator field called Production, we would be able to only see the collaborators in the Production department. As it is, everyone from every department has to look through all the names to find there name. Thanks! ... View more

We’ve got two types of users in our org. Some who are deep into Airtable all the time and some who are mostly just viewing information but who could make small updates to records (e.g. update the status of a task) if they had access to do so. However, given the limited scope of what these users need to do, we can’t justify the cost of moving them from Read-Only to paid user access. Unfortunately, that makes Airtable less useful than it could be if money were no object. I’d be willing to pay a smaller monthly fee per user for these types of users if it were offered. But as it stands today, we’ve had to limit paid licenses to just the handful of team members who need deeper access to the data. ... View more

We have many views that records pass through as certain criteria is met. Eg. The “photo is ready for loading view”. Currently a user must open a view to see if there is a record (or more) in it that needs attention. Would be great if on a view we could switch on “notification” which would then show a red button on the view title in the left view menu with the number of records in the view showing inside the red the button. Just like messaging on your phone. Then at a glance we can see what needs to be done. ... View more

Is it possible to be able to have selectable charts in an Interface dashboard similar to those in AT Dashboard apps? It would be very useful to be able to select an objects on a chart (bar or pie or…) and have it either pop the record/s of that object or have it filter the view without having to use separate filters. sd ...

Love the new interfaces feature. It would be great if it were possible to add fields into groups or sections which are visible based on different criteria. For example, I’m using the interfaces feature to input data for different rooms / spaces. If I were to select one out of two rooms, the input boxes for the second room would become invisible. ...
