Couple of questions on new Tables/Workflow Features

Ask the community
1

After attending the information session I had some additional questions.

  • Will the pricing change because of these new features? Separate pricing?
  • Will the number of records allowed in Tables depend on what level of service you subscribe to? Will it be per table or per account?
  • Will you be able to share tables with users like Airtable does or will this mostly be a datasource that can be used in the applications and sharing will be through the app?
  • Will it be grouped into Bases where you can have multiple tables or will each table be an individual data source?
  • Will you be able to create relations between the tables?

That’s probably enough for now. :slight_smile: Thank you

I believe I can answer the last one.

Absolutely! You’ll be able to create relations between the tables

You can use hidden fields in workflows to pass data without showing it to users. Also, dynamic values help a lot when setting up conditions to personalize actions based on user inputs.

Hi @redndahead

Thanks for your questions. Think of our tables as a similar solution to Airtable - except 10x faster for your Softr app :wink:

  1. Honestly, still figuring out pricing. For now, we’re planning to group tables within our current plans, with the limits for records being based on our current plans.
  2. Don’t know yet. Will have less restrictions in the beginning on the pricing side, generally.
  3. Yes, you will be able to share tables with users to collaborate with you on.
  4. Each table will be similar to a base, with many tables inside of the base. You can create more bases as well. They will be separated from your Softr app, so they can work as a standalone DB as well.
  5. Yes, relational fields, along with formulas, lookups and others will be supported.

We’re preparing for a private beta in the next 2-3 weeks. We will alert users on the forum when we’re ready for beta testers! Stay tuned =)
