increase the frequency of scheduled tasks.
Data in many businesses changes often. If you schedule a task to import a dataset currently, the highest frequency is once per hour. It would be nice to have it be able to go down to a half hour or 15 minute increment.

Bulk SMS
The inability to create applications that have bulk sms functionality is part of the reasons im still deciding on developing my applications using Caspio.

SQL DISTINCT - Unique records from a field or set of fields
Add an option for a DataPage to generate a list (either Gallery or List) which displays unique values only. This is the equivalent of the SQL DISTINCT command and should be capable of being filtered (unique Zip codes in a single/set of states in a list of addresses) or the unique records from a set of fields - One instance of any records with first and last name being exactly the same.
86 votesThank you for your suggestion. The ability to display distinct records in reports is a standard feature in all Report DataPages.

onedrive. Dropbox, Box, Gdrive and other cloud services
You should provide integration with Onedrive, Drop, Dropbox.
At least the top cloud storage services, so, instead of uploading a file to your server on tables, we could load to our cloud server account and Caspio only stores the link instead of the file.
I believe storing multimedia files Iaudio, photo, video, documents) is not Caspio main business, but database service and storage, so it would add many possibilities to store and publish multimedia data on websites.
I've been doing some research on the main website builder services and none of them offer the possibility to create dynamic multimedia lists.…
1 voteHi Carlos, this part is now related to your second comment.
I see what you mean now. Check out Caspio FileStor at http://howto.caspio.com/files-and-images/filestor-cdn/
While it is not the consumer cloud drive, I think it achieve what you are referring to in an elegant way.
=======
Thank you for the idea. If I understand your suggestion correctly, you would like to leave media files or other files on your cloud drive but still use them as if they were loaded into your tables.
This is currently possible. All you need to do is to enter the URL of your file asset, regardless of where it is, into text field and in your apps render the text field as Display Only and sub option of URL, etc. You can also embed your such entries into any HTML block.

Render Datapages as PDF
Caspio needs to include a PDF output option to bring it up to spped with other applications in this area.
As an Destination option, Caspio should provide a flag that allows a Datapage to display in PDF.
This can be applied with a simple html to pdf conversion tool.Example.
Create a HTML Datapage which receives parameters and styled as a document.
Choose this data page as the destination page (Tick for PDF) and the page/pdf should Open/Display as pdf when called by the browser.127 votesThank you again for this idea.

Make the chart function more like Excel
The chart functionality could be very powerful, but as it stands it's very limiting. Below are some things that would vastly improve it:

Multiple Axes
Multiple series types (mixed bar/line)
Cumulative charts
Pareto charts

Freeze first column in a 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…

Allow a combination of fields to be a composite key
In some cases we want a combination of values to be unique. A sample scenario is to ensure that there is only one record per facility per year. This can be achieved if the combination of facility and year are designated as key and hence they have to be unique. This is a valid RDBMS concept and it will be great if Caspio implements it.
111 votesIn recent 9.8 release, unique attribute is now available for Formula Field which can be used as a composite key. More information can be found at http://howto.caspio.com/release-notes/caspio-bridge-9-8/
