This feature was already requested 3 months ago but it was never answered except by other people saying how important it is! So I’m doing it again. Please please let us use views on linked fields, not just tables. The capacity for corrupting the data is huge when we can’t control what can be selected. For example, I have a list of events at which something can be hired. I want to prevent the selection of an event in the past, the selection of an item that’s already hired out, the selection of a blacklisted user. When I process the return of a hire I select the hire from a list - I want to only display current hires, not have to trawl to the bottom of a list of past hires first. There’s so many ways this is essential! At the moment I solve this by using a sort order to push the most likely selections to the top of the list. But given that the sort order isn’t applied unless you actually click the button, this creates quite an overhead. For example, when I add a user it’s probably because I want to immediately add a hire for that user. So I want the user at the top of the list, which is where my sort order would put it, but first I have to go into the base and reapply the sort. ... View more

I am sorry but while your tutorial videos have nice screenshots, and music they are not tutorials. They may show an overview of how a feature is used but without someone actually explaining what is going on they are useless, I watched the linking videos 10 times and am still clueless. Please create a longer full length viseo with commentary that walks though the entire process of setting up a functional base and using the featues. ... View more

I want to create a template that I can share with my clients, one that they would then own and I would not see the results of. For example: I assign each of my clients a social media audit spreadsheet. They fill it in with their profile information (including usernames and passwords) and move forward using it when working on their training. There is no reason for me to have access to their information, thus I’d love to make it a template they would use (and BONUS begin their relationship with airtable through) ... View more

So I have a couple of tables that I use to link deliverables to jobs and tasks to deliverables. Each line on these linked tables don’t really have a name that makes sense, so I use a number. I’ve used auto number reluctantly because it’s sort of a “dumb” auto number. By “dumb” I mean that it starts at 1 and increments from there. If I delete something out of the row, it picks up where the last increment was. If I delete something at the end of my list, now my nicely numbered rows are missing a number. I’d like to be able to start the auto number at an arbitrary number, and turn on an option to make sure that it is “smart” about the way it increments so that it looks at the last number currently in the table and adds 1 (n+1) rather than a simple (i++ ). ...

Right now these field (column) types are not supported for public form views. This would be a very handy feature and could eliminate the necessary of another software platform. ... View more

On the iOS app there’s a yellow plus sign at the bottom of the table view that allows you to easily add a new record to the table despite not being scrolled to the bottom of the table. I would like to be able to add a new record on the desktop version without having to scroll down to the bottom of a (sometimes very large) table. I have a people / contacts table with ~1600 records and in order to add a new record, I currently have to scroll to the very bottom. Filters could help this issue by filtering records so that only a subset of the table’s records are shown which would make the table appear smaller, but I’ve run into another issue when I add a new record to a filtered table: usually the new record is filtered immediately because the filter is based on the record containing a certain value, which the new record doesn’t have. Being able to have columns populate a default value on new records would really help this situation. But I’d love to be able to add a new record with a button at the top of the table which would add a new record and take me directly to that new record in the interface. ... View more

It would be helpful to be able to wrap text within a Formula, Single Line Text or a Long Text field if the column width on view is too small. (Rather than truncate the text) ... View more
