How to create a "What's New" embed


How can I create a “What’s New” view similar to Airtable’s "What’s New page?
I tried to do it using a Record List but don’t see how it can be embedded and the Grid does not support the same formatting or popup functionality.
Didn’t see any examples in any of the Forum posts.
Any ideas?

Thanks.

Jens

Hi Justin.
Sure. It’s exactly what on Airtable’s “What’s New” page, which I assume uses this capability.

I tried to include the url in my first response but it was rejected.

Thanks. I thought that’s what it was, but something about your comments threw me for a bit. My bad.

Anyway, I thought at first that it was a custom version of the Gallery view, but it turns out that it’s just the grid view. When you pull up the options for embedding the view, one of the choices is “Use card layout on desktop”.

Welcome to the community, @Jens_Tellefsen! :grinning_face_with_big_eyes: Can you provide a more specific example of how/where this could/would be used? I’m not sure I can picture what you’re talking about.

Thanks Justin.

Worked like a charm (that clearly was my bad as the toggle was right there). :-0

Thanks for your help on this.
