💡 Update
We launched features in our Client Portal extension that allow you to search and filter records. It’s a better replacement for most use cases.
Both of these demos above are using this Airtable View
With this extension, you can share a web page that allows people to search your Airtable base. You can decide which fields can be searched and which fields are shown in search results. It generates a unique search page URL for you that you can share with those you’d like to give access to.
💡This extension is ideal for allowing clients to lookup data in Airtable without having to create an Airtable view for each client.
Optional Features
- The extension can be embedded inside your own website (with automatic height adjustment).
- The search page can contain multiple fields.
- You can allow users to edit records via the built-in form.
- You can allow users to download records as CSV.
- Supports direct in-line editing for all field types in the grid view.
- Optionally you can allow users to add new records.
- Supports looking up records by scanning Barcodes/QR codes.
(so you can scan a barcode and see an Airtable record as a result)
💡Tip
If your table uses linked records for users, then you are looking to create a login page for your clients instead. We recommend using miniExtensions Portal to display records that are relevant to them.
Automatic View Generator
Another use case for this extension is to generate dynamic views. It allows direct access to the view URL (results page), skipping the search page. Instead of manually creating a view for each client or employee, you can use this extension to share their data with very minimal effort. Just decide which field(s) they can access. Then you can share the results page URL with them and they’ll skip the search or login page, and be taken directly to the generated view.
Use Cases
Here are some examples of common use cases for this extension:
- Tracking Order Status
- Lookup Inventory
