I love the ability to display Single-select and Multi-select fields as either a list or dropdown in forms, as it provides a much better visual indication of the options and just a better UX for survey respondents. However, this cannot yet be done for...
One missing piece of functionality is the ability to create advanced filters that utilize a combination of AND and OR filters.
For example, here’s similar functionality from EnjoyHQ.
However, I think Airtable could do this even better and the filteri...
It would be useful to have a “Button” field type that you could use to trigger an action (e.g., perform a calculation, run a Block, trigger a Zapier Zap, run a script, run small automations, etc.). Even though some of this functionality can currentl...
While Airtable is basically like a Swiss Army Knife that allows users to create almost anything they like, this does cause some issues for folks who would like to use Airtable to replace CRMs and Task Management software. For example, there are not T...
It would be nice if when creating new fields – especially when the fields have fixed-length content – for Airtable to default the field width to the size of the content contained in such. For example, if you create a single select field, default the ...
Come on Airtable, throw me a freakin’ switch! I (and many others) have been asking for this for over 3 years now! There’s been a US presidential election and a global pandemic in the interim, and all we’re asking for here is a wee little switch that ...
My current workaround until this functionality is available is to create complicated formulas to basically be pre-filters that I can then apply other filters against. Very inelegant and good luck to anyone else trying to decipher how a given view is ...
Yeah, I would also love to be able to quickly multi-select many linked records fields (both on a form and in a dropdown), as you can only select one at a time.
It IS a workaround, but it’s not very scalable, as creating 3 additional fields and an automation for what is essentially a field-level filter is not a particularly elegant solution. And then good luck trying to explain that workflow to a non-experie...
Every single time I’ve explained this to other users (especially in remote calls), it’s always awkward and counter-intuitive. It’s like…“No, you can’t paste it into the cell, you have to click the plus icon and then…no, you can’t just keyboard shortc...
