Hi everyone,I'm Akshar Patel (AP), a Product Manager here at Airtable. Today I'm sharing a new way to edit records on record detail pages in interfaces: Form editing.Until now, record detail pages supported inline editing where users click into fields and update values directly on the page. That works great for quick updates, but if you've ever wanted more structure around how data gets changed, things like validation rules, a controlled set of fields, a clear submit action, inline editing doesn't quite get you there.Now it can. Introducing Form editing for record detail pages When you enable Form editing, an "Edit" button appears on the record detail page. When a user clicks it, a customizable form opens in a modal. They make their changes, and submit them all at once. The record detail page itself stays read-only — all editing happens through the form. This gives you full control over the editing experience.Why this mattersData validation: Set rules that submitted values must meet be

Hi everyone, I'm Akshar Patel (AP), a Product Manager here at Airtable. As we close out Q1, I wanted to share a few quality of life improvements we've been working on. These are the kinds of updates that make your Airtable experience meaningfully better every day. Comment Resolution & File AttachmentsEarlier this quarter we launched the ability to resolve comments and attach files to comments on records.

I spend a lot of time questioning whether there's a better approach.

But now, through conversations with AI and tools like Airtable, I'm able

We just launched Superagent, and I'm excited to share what we've been building.Hopefully you have seen by now that we just launched Airtable’s first standalone product, Superagent. I am the co-founder and CEO of Superagent, which is an evolution of the acquisition of DeepSky last fall. Most AI agents hit a wall when you ask them to tackle the kind of work that normally takes a team weeks to complete—comprehensive market research, competitive intelligence that tracks evolving landscapes, financial modeling that requires coordinating multiple analytical threads. They either get lost in their own complexity or produce surface-level summaries that miss what actually matters.Superagent is different because it thinks like an organization, not like a single analyst grinding through a checklist. Instead of cramming everything into one context window and hoping for the best, it builds a knowledge graph around business intent. Every piece of research knows why it exists, what goal it serves, and

What stood out most from the NYC Buildathon?The builders. Full stop. That disposable camera vibe 🤙Last week in New York City, hundreds of Airtable builders came together — and it was honestly incredible to watch what happened when you put that many creative, systems-minded people in one room.You could feel it immediately:Tables of strangers turning into teammates… then into besties by the end of the day.

Hey Airtable Community,We're excited to announce two key updates for Enterprise Scale customers: a brand-new Databricks sync integration and expanded custom SQL support for both Databricks and Snowflake.What's newDatabricks is now available as a native sync source. And for both Databricks and Snowflake, you can now sync the result of any custom SQL query, not just predefined views or tables, directly into Airtable.This means any user with permission to execute queries within a warehouse can write precise queries to sync data to Airtable tables on a schedule, ready for automations, interfaces, and cross-functional workflows.Why this mattersData warehouses hold your company's most trusted data, but that data has historically been locked behind SQL and BI dashboards. With these syncs, you can operationalize warehouse data directly in Airtable: users can enrich warehouse data with local context, trigger automations on data thresholds, surface prioritized records for sales and ops teams, an
