Hi,

I have an Airtable database with tracking numbers for parcels and the customer details for each shipment.

I am trying to build a public tracking page where visitors can enter a tracking number and then view the details for their parcel. I can’t seem to figure out how to do this with Glide. Is this possible?

Surely possible! Create a details screen that accepts the tracking number via a text entry. Write that value into a user specific text column. Create a relation column between the text column and the parcel details table. Then you can either create a bunch of lookup columns to display the parcel info or you can link to the parcel details via a button (show detail screen → relation to parcel table).
