  1. Add Function to display a message in Triggered actions

    It would be useful to be able to display a message when a triggered action runs and meets a certain condition.I could then inform the user of confirmation, actions required to rectify or warn them the other table did not update and why.

  2. I was getting duplicate name for the column header in table design view

    I think It was because I was swapping column headers with the same name and did not save in between each. the issue was that the first row for the first column would be the one highlighted in red. I nice feature would be to highlight the actual one.
    Also for it not to dumb all your work and just not let you save it....because when you do, all the work goes away, as another suggestion.. I should be good now thank you!

  3. SQL distinct for views

    Add a distinct records option to views. I'm aware of the requests at the report level, some / most of that need could be resolved if we could base that report on a view that has a "SELECT DISTINCT" enabled. Should be easy to implement?

  4. Please allow incremental update of imported tables

    Once a large table is imported from Excel, please allow at least APPENDING to the table easily with only updated rows. For example, I have daily data and already imported historical data of 1M rows, I need just this month's rows.

  5. The Ability To Stop A Trigger If No Conditions Are Met

    The use of CASE and IF/THEN statements in Triggers are very helpful - however, it would be nice if there was a logic block or something where we can STOP the trigger from executing.

    In example, if you have an email trigger with a conditional CASE statement in the body, and none of the conditions meet the CASE statement, a blank email will still be sent out. If I could use the ELSE part of the statement will a STOP function, there would be no problem.

  6. Add new formula fields in views with more than one table

    It would be great I could create formula fields in views (with more than one table). This could make it possible to use, combine or calculate data from multiple tables in a formula.

  7. Image file as URL

    Instead of uploading image files to each file field, the ability to pass an image url only as file parameter is easier and space saving.

  8. Option to update record after email is sent

    There are a few instances where I have to send an email then update the record with a time stamp to show the email was sent so that we are not sending multiple emails.

    Caspio is pushing us to not use if statements but right now I have to for these. It would be great if we had an option to update a field after the email is sent successfully. If we could have that included in the email action then I could eliminate the If statements and hopefully increase the performance of my triggered action. An example of what…

  9. Provide a parameter for when a table was last updated.

    I update a certain table 1 time per week manually via import. After the import I need to enter 1, (or many) datapages that reference the table, and manually update HTML text field for "last updated MM-DD-YYYY).
    It would be nice to have system parameters for the tables that can give for example
    "last added record date"
    "last deleted record date"
    "last added or deleted record"
    or
    "last modified" (Any change to the data table)

  11. Allow list strings read data from another table

    Allow 'list strings' in tables to read data from another table
    (instead import data).

    In many cases the list is incomplete after some hours. Because users have entered new data.

    For example:
    I need a the selection of multiple products, which is continuously extended.

  12. Run Tasks outside of Caspio Website

    I would like to see the ability to create a button/link to run a specific task inside of a Datapage. For example, I have many tasks that my staff need to run on demand. Currently, I have to set these tasks up to a schedule, or log in and run them on demand for my staff.

    If we had the option to add specific task buttons inside of datapages, or even a specific link that would trigger the task to run, then my staff could run these tasks as they complete their work.

  13. Freeze first column in a TABLE (not a datapage table)

    I'd like to be able to "freeze" the first column in a table, so that as I scroll across the table, I can always see the first column (which indicates the name of the record).

    Sometimes we have a lot of editing to do, and it's easiest to do it in the table. And sometimes, we want to copy the same info into a field for several records. But since we can't see the "Names" of the records (that are in the first column) as we scroll across, we can't accurately past info into the fields. If we could freeze…

  14. Convert View to Table

    There have been a few instances I've ran into where it would be helpful to be able to convert a view to a table directly in Caspio rather than having to download the view and re-import it as a table.

  15. Formula Field Width

    Increase the size of formula fields from 255 characters to at minimum 1,000 or greater. Some applications require generating a unique id from concatenated fields that exceed the current 255 characters limit.

  16. Caspio supported digital signature capture

    It would be great if there was a datatype for signatures so that you could capture signatures natively in the Caspio application.

  17. Trigger generated SQL

    Hi,

    can we have a way to see what SQL gets generated when we setup a trigger? this will help figure out logic issues and other small trigger issues for people who are familiar with SQL.

  18. Calculate day of week in Formula Fields

    It would be very useful to find the day of the week of a Date field in a formula field in a table. For example, then you could find the Monday of the week of an event to group by date in a datapage.

  19. Allow formula fields to be linked with other tables

    Any formula field should be allowed to be used to join with other tables, of course, as long as all possible outputs of the function are of the same type (numeric value or text)
