What's new in Softr

If a dropdown input or inline filter is linked to a field in Airtable with the “limit record selection to a view” setting enabled, the app will now honor this setting. It will only display the permitted options to your end users.

Softr Universe is a new medium for anyone to discover, share, and use templates created by the Softr community, helping you accelerate your development process and launch quickly. It is also a perfect place for you as a creator to showcase your Softr skills, generate new leads for your businesses, and be recognized as a top no-coder!

If you're on a paid plan, you can now purchase extra custom domains or collaborators in addition to the default allowance that comes with your plan.

Here's how: 1\. Simply add a custom domain/collaborator as you normally would. 2\. There will be a prompt asking you to confirm the extra payment. 3\. Click confirm and the extra domain/collaborators will be added!

P.S. Only available on the latest pricing version.

We have made significant improvements to help you overcome troubleshooting challenges when building your apps. With this latest update, you'll now receive more specific error notifications related to Airtable base, table, and view mapping. We'll continue to add more error handling. Expect more to come!

You can now let your users update a record with just one click of a button — no editing modal needed! This is useful for quick actions like approval, confirmation, etc. You pre-configure which field(s) to update + the value (static or dynamic) it will be updated to. All your users have to do is click the button and see the magic happen. P.S.

• In the future, this action will also let you append value to existing one (e.g. add a new tag) or perform calculation (e.g. upvote)
• “Update record” action is now called “Edit record” to make the distinction more obvious.

We've added 2 new fields you can have on the add/update record modal:

• Hidden fields – This allows you to attach information about the current user, current record (if on the list details page), or custom values as part of an action without users knowing about it.
• Rich text input – Similar to long text input, but with formatting options.

In case you missed it — we added more than 15 templates last week:

• Employee Onboarding
• Help Desk
• Issue Tracker
• Customer Onboarding
• KPI Dashboard
• Asset Directory
• Community Forum
• ...and more!

P.S. Many new and old templates now also come with a Google Sheets version.

Like dropdown inputs, you can now auto-sync options for inline filters. No matter how your options change in the data source, they will always stay up-to-date in your app! P.S. Currently only available for Airtable: single select, multi-select, and linked records fields.

Today, we are excited to share a huge milestone for Softr!

We are officially launching our Google Sheets as a data source today. It has been one of our most requested integrations, and this launch lets you turn your spreadsheets into powerful apps, just like what you have been able to do with Airtable.

Action buttons improvements are on the way! First up is the Delete record action. This allows users to permanently remove a selected record from your application.

You can now restrict users to a single form submission. This can be especially useful for job application and event attendance use cases. Currently this setting can only be applied on pages with a list details block.

Our charts just got a makeover! Although they may look the same (for now), the way to set them up has been completely changed with new functionalities added. To understand why we made these changes and what's new, check out our blog post.
