I would also love this functionality. I have created “Executive Views” for a couple of my airtables and I would like to lock them down so people cannot change the filtering or sorting.
I agree.
It’s easy to change a view but it can be difficult to bring it back to the original if there are complex filters, sorts and groups, as well as the width and position of various fields. Much better to have the choice of locking a view.
Please, please consider adding this feature soon. The views are SO HELPFUL to filter specific data that you’re tracking against but with many people collaborating on the bases it’s very difficult to maintain how they are set up. They can easily get changed even by mistake. A quick “are you sure you want to change this filter?” or “lock” in place would be really fantastic.
