Use Airtable comments in the miniExtensions Form and Portal to let users read and add native comments on existing Airtable records. Their feedback appears in the record’s Airtable comment thread, keeping discussion alongside the data.

Discuss an existing record

Enable comments on child forms that edit records. Users can read the discussion while reviewing a record, and adding comments requires the login feature. Comments are not supported on child forms that create a new record.

Comments and add-only notes are different

Airtable comments belong to the record’s comment thread. If you instead want people to append notes to a long-text field while preserving earlier entries, use Add-only mode. That stores the new information as a field value rather than a native comment. Choose the workflow that matches where your team needs the information.

Use cases

• Let customers discuss a request without editing the underlying business data.
• Let employees leave feedback on an existing task or record.
• Use an add-only long-text field when your workflow requires a growing notes field instead of a comment thread.
