Hi,

@owner field (provides by airtable) is read only. It is a user type Airtable field. I can’t add this field on edit view.  
Some help is much appreciated.

Hi @zephir,

Welcome to the community 🥳

You mean you cannot add a Text Entry component or a Email Entry component clicking the white plus icon on the left side and connect that to the Owner column?

Thank you

Thanks.

User type Field from Air Table is partially supported by glide :

- ok for read-only
- ko for edit

I have solved the issue by changing type Field on Air Table base ( from user type entry to text type entry)
