The Login option simplifies the sharing of forms and portals with numerous individuals, enabling them to conveniently update their data on Airtable. Moreover, the Login page extends beyond its primary function as a login interface. It can also serve as a lookup tool, eliminating the need for users to manually input text. The login field can present a list of existing login values. For example, when users need to select a project from a predefined list of existing projects, the login field can provide a dropdown of available project names.
The benefit of utilizing this feature, particularly within the form, is that there’s no necessity to generate a unique URL for each individual record.
