Airtable home screen

The Airtable home screen helps you navigate to and discover the work that matters most to you. Below, we'll walk you through the details of where you can find various menus, options, links, workspaces, bases, and interfaces.

Introduction

The drop-down on the right allows you to further filter by choosing to show items Opened by you or Shared with you. Lastly, you can sort items Newest to oldest or Oldest to newest.

10. Create a base - Click here to create a base. This will open a popover menu where you will choose the workspace location to create the new base. (Creator or owner permissions only)

Bases and interfaces

The image below shows where you can find additional options for your bases and interfaces when you have a particular workspace page open. Here, we show the experience in a grid format, but the list format is similar. Hovering over a base or interface will give you additional options:

• Starring - This allows you to favorite the bases and interfaces you work in the most. Just click the star to add or remove from the starred list in the sidebar to the right.
• Pinning - We discuss this in more depth below.
• Base options - Hovering over a base will show the "..." spillover menu. Depending upon your permission level, you may be able to rename, share, duplicate, or delete the base. You may also move the base or customize its icon and color. Finally, you can also set Slack notification rules for the base, pin the base at the top of your workspace, or add it to your starred list.
• Interface options - Hovering over an interface will show the "..." spillover menu. You can click Go to workspace if you are a workspace collaborator where that interface resides. This option will be greyed out if you are only a base collaborator. Also, you can star an interface from this menu.

Pinning bases and interfaces

You can also choose to pin a set of up to 3 bases and/or interfaces at the top of each workspace page. Pinned items will appear in the order that they were pinned, earliest to most recent. To add another pinned item you'll need to remove another pinned item first if you've already reached the maximum of 3 pinned items.
