This is currently showing up in my airtable program (mac) but doesnโ€™t appear to be working. I have a filter set on a view to show only โ€œcurrentโ€, but when I limit my selection to that view in the lookup field itโ€™s showing everything regardless. Soโ€ฆis this supposed to be working right now or is it yet to be functional? Or maybe Iโ€™m misunderstanding its purpose?

Its worked for me as expected when I first tried it this morning.

Where I created a new view with the filter(most recent date for each of a given subtype of record) I want in table โ€˜Aโ€™, I reconfigure the linked record field in table โ€˜Bโ€™ to look at that view only, and presto.

And holy hell, it actually propagates/works in the iOS app as well (so happy :star_struck: ) - I was not expecting that to work as we still donโ€™t have the ability to edit formulas in an app or for a field default value to show up on newly created records in the app :grinning_face_with_sweat:
