+1 Really need this functionality for our PIM. Need to be able to select from predefined product attribute values to enforce consistency.

Hello,

I am trying to do what you mention above: limit which records appear in the linked record picker based on another variable in the linked table. I am not clear how I would do this with a formula or lookup field. Can you explain more?

Thanks,
Alex

limit which records appear in the linked record picker on the names table

Is there a way to do this?

[Jeremy_Oglesby]

No, there’s not. (these characters are merely here to meet the character limit)

[Mitch_Lathrop]

Any traction on this feature? Seems like limiting the linked record to a specific view on the linked table would be the best way to do this.

Hi Katherine, has there been any updates on this? I’m currently at looking to move from Podio to Airtable and this is one of the key features I need. I have 500 applications come in via a web form for Volunteers and I’d like to assign them shifts, however, I’m currently getting all the shifts that are already allocated and I can’t filter them out. I’m currently paying for Pro, so if there is an unreleased Beta I can subscribe to please let me know!

We have a product content managment system. Products have multiple attributes, many attributes have pre-defined values. It would be very nice to select the attribute and restrict values to the pre-defined.

+1 This would be an immensely helpful feature for me and multiple different projects! Allowing people to choose from a filtered list could improve forms and general data entry so much!
