Feature
I am requesting a feature that allows users to search or query a Glide table by a specific column value directly within Glide.
Problem
Currently, to achieve this functionality, users must:
- Create a data store in Make.com.
- Save the records in the data store.
- Search the data store for the record using the stored rowId from Glide.
This process is cumbersome and inefficient, requiring multiple steps and external tools.
Expected Functionality
- Search Functionality: Users should be able to restrict the search function to only search within a specific column of their choice.
- Query Capability: Users should be able to query a Glide table by specifying a column and a value to search for, returning the relevant records.
Importance
- Efficiency: Streamlines the process by eliminating the need for external data stores and multiple steps.
- User Experience: Enhances the user experience by providing a more intuitive and direct way to search and query data within Glide.
- Flexibility: Offers more flexibility in how data can be managed and retrieved within Glide applications.
Additional Details
- This feature would be particularly useful for scenarios where users need to search for specific part numbers, user IDs, or other unique identifiers within a table.
- It would save time and reduce the complexity of app development within Glide.
Please consider adding this feature to improve the overall functionality and user experience of Glide.
