Here’s an example to see how exactly this extension works.

💡This extension is ideal for sharing data with clients without having to create an Airtable view for each client.
This extension can be used in 2 different ways:
1. Client Portal
You can also use this as a customer or member portal. Where they can login and see some specific data that you allow them to see. This tool is particularly useful if you have clients/employees/students and you only want them to be able to see the records that they are associated with (e.g. profile/membership page), and none of the other records in your base. It’s ideal to allow your clients to login and see/update their data. They would only be able to see their own data, not anyone else. You can control which fields are shown and which are used for search. Also, you can either share it as a link with your clients or you can embed it in your website.
2. Automatic View Generator
Instead of manually creating a view for each client or employee, you can use this extension to share their data with a very minimal effort. Just decide which field(s) they can access. Then you can share the search results page URL with them and they’ll be skipping the search page, and taken directly to the generated view. The portal allows direct access to the view (results page) URL, skipping the login (search) page.
