I have lots of tables and views. I’d love to see maybe a drop down at the top of the base to select favorite views for ones I go to frequently. ... View more

One potential Airtable product idea could be the addition of a feature that allows for the enabling or disabling of column visibility for individual users or groups of users. This would be especially useful for teams or organizations that work with sensitive or confidential information, as it would give them more control over who can view certain types of data without having to create various views/tables/bases for each user. The same way we can choose who can edit a collumn, we could choose who can see it. Here's how this feature might work: First, the user would need to create a new table or select an existing table within Airtable. Then, they could choose to enable the column visibility feature for that table. Next, they would need to select which columns should be visible by default, and which columns should be hidden by default. Finally, the user would be able to specify which users or groups of users should have access to certain columns. For example, they might choose to hide certain columns from all users except for members of the finance team. This feature would be especially useful for businesses and organizations that need to keep certain types of information private, such as financial data or customer information. By giving users more control over who can see certain columns, Airtable would help ensure that sensitive data is only viewed by authorized personnel. ... View more

At some point, you can get a lot of fields in one table. I would like a way to organize my field: like field collections or groups. I have made a simple mock-up of how it could in an expanded record. Field collection would help when the same records go through many different processes (like a video production) It would make it easier to hide/unhide a group of fields a once It could be used to create a horizontal grouping in a grid view where field a group together instead of records group by fields. It would make it easier to find the field you’re looking for when you have a big record. ... View more

I’ve found the need for an Eval() (Evaluate Function) that would allow you to have a different formula for each record in a table. For example, if you have a field called Formula Text with the following data for the first 3 records: TRIM(UPPER({Input Field 1})) CONCATENATE({Input Field 2}, " ",{Input Field 3}) CONCATENATE("Expiration Date: ",{Input Field 4}) The Eval() function would allow you to create a new field called Formula Result, who’s properties are set to Formula with the following formula: Eval({Formula Text}), and the results for the first 3 records would be (I’ve omitted sample data and have just performed the functions in the formula to the names of the Input Fields): INPUT FIELD 1 Input Field 2 Input Field 3 Expiration Date: Input Field 4 ...

Pretty much explained by the topic name, it would be great to be able to select Star Rating as a field type as way of rating things 1-5. I know there’s other ways of doing this (you could have a single select using the black star glyph) but it would be cool! ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? Add a search bar to the top of the list of Autmations, similar to the ability to search Views. How does is solve the user problems? We have nearly 100 automations, it's difficult to sort through them all when doing maintenance, even though we do have them grouped in sections How was this validated? ...

Airtable is letting me do about 95% of what I need for creating an app for recruiters to review job seeker profiles. I made the resume the cover image, but even in the record detail view you can’t read the text in the image. If I could write some custom CSS it would give me so much flexibility to fix this and a whole range of other issues! It’s such a bummer when a platform is SO close to doing what you need but then you have to go write the whole thing from scratch because there’s one critical thing missing that could be fixed with a CSS override. Custom scripts would also be A+! Squarespace allows this and it makes so much possible. They specify that they can’t support pages with custom code, which is fine with me. I’m going to use Espresso to make the changes. If that works as well as I hope, then I’ll investigate making a browser extension which will allow those overrides to be shared with our team. Thanks for the excellent product. I’ve not been this excited about a new platform in I don’t know when! I just started telling friends about it yesterday and already four have signed up. ... View more
