Great news! We’ve just enabled this feature for everyone. Check out Mikayla’s post below for more info.

+1, We really need this. It seems so obvious ! :frowning:

Yes, please add the ability to autosort. It’s quite annoying that everytime I go to a view where I have a sort set that I have to manually initiate the sort.

I can’t believe this is not an obvious feature. +1 to adding this.

+1! An autosort option at view-level would be an excellent addition. Perhaps with an option for it to be enabled either a) constantly (i.e. reactive to live changes) and b) only when a view is loaded (so the sort remains static whilst edits are made).

This is a desperately needed feature for our organization. We track projects by completion date and too often new projects are getting buried to the bottom of the list.

Yes please, auto sort! This is a big issue for us.

A thousand times THIS. We love AirTable and I use it exclusively every single day to run my department, meaning I have literally 20 different views within my base, and each view is sorted by different criteria and viewable by different people and it is very time consuming to have to manually sort each view every time a new record is added. Just as quickly as records can be filtered in and out of views with changes made, an auto sort of some kind would be so beneficial for us!

Another +1 on this, very much needed!

Glad to see that this request remains alive (thanks, @Katherine_Duh, for the maintenance). Having an auto-sort would solve one of my biggest challenges with Airtable.

It’s essential for kanban based workflows or dashboards.
