Add "Edit" button when viewing a view
When I'm inside a view (I have the view open), it would be nice to have a shortcut at the top to jump straight to the "Edit" instead of having to go back to the view list then click on edit.
Similarly, if after finishing edit there was an option to immediately open the view.

Enable GZIP compression for datapages to speed up deployment and loading.
Anytime there are multiple datapages on one webpage it slows the site down a lot.
1 voteThank you for the idea. GZIP compression was already built into our platform to optimize DataPages’ transfer speed.

Can we add SQL to the table formula field for cross table calculations?
Now that we have a formula field which is great for in table calculations can we take the logic step and include SQL commands or soem form of macro that would allow cross table calculations to be stored in table.
For example at present we can SUM a range of records from any table or view using the calculations field, but the performance is slow i'd say. But to be able to do the same in table, would make a significant improvement to performance and functionality.
56 votesWith the introduction of Triggered Actions, it is possible to perform complex calculations and logic at table level. More information can be found at https://howto.caspio.com/tables-and-views/triggered-actions/.

Improving charts look & feel!
Charts layout need a make up. Why not start using Chart.js (http://www.chartjs.org) or a newer look and feel?
4 votesThank you again for this idea. We made major improvements for Chart DataPages in recent 9.5 Release. More information can be found at http://howto.caspio.com/datapages/charts/

Grid Edit
GRID EDIT - Allow Enter key to position to cell below
(Today you must Tab to cell first which is just an unneeded / extra step...and silly :) )
NOTE: In Table edit mode, we can press enter to get to the next cell below

Freeze column and header in pivot table
It's pretty essential to have the ability to freeze headers and columns in pivot tables, just as they are in Excel. In larger tables data becomes unreadable without this.

Tidy up sticky headers for a more professional look
Currently, when scrolling down with sticky headers, records move above the header and the download and search options are lost. A much more professional look would be to prevent records above the header from being visible, and to have the download and search options displayed at all times. In effect, this would be like creating a fixed, opaque banner above the first record.

Ratio Calculation in Pivot Tables
Pivot Tables should have the ability to divide two aggregations rather than dividing each individual record and then using a SUM function, which gives the wrong result.

Make User editable database triggers, to allow for more complex and interesting applications
We currently have an application with a simple trigger built into it (when a User is approved, it generates a records of their Organization in a separate table from data captured at User creation, and connects the two records). But it was something a Caspio team created for us as part of a paid project, and it's not something we can access to innovate on or even troubleshoot on our own. I feel being able to customize triggers would allow for some much more powerful applications (that would be more user-friendly both for Caspio App developers, as well as for…

Implement paginated responses for REST API requests
Currently the max # of rows from a table via the REST API is limited to 1,000.
Many REST APIs utilize pagination via page tokens or other methods and I think caspio could benefit from implementing this kind of feature.
I've personally resorted to querying by autonumber and using multiple API calls, but a native solution would be cleaner / faster.
9 votesThank you again for this idea. Pagination is now supported in REST API. More information can be found at https://howto.caspio.com/integration/web-services-api/rest-api/criteria/

Stacked bar chart
I have built a system for resource management as best as I can within the standard options in Caspio bridge. What I really want to see is the option to use a stacked bar chart to display allocations for any unit with a start date and an end date. That means tahat the headings should be dynamic, and display day, week or month based on user selection. If only days are available, I can live with that.

Date Rollup to include Rollup by DATE (charts & tables)
Ideally what we would like to be able to do, and I can't imagine that we are the only ones, is to be able to just select an Any Date (Mon-Sun) Date Rollup instead of just Weekdays (M-F) (SNip.png). Additionally, when our filter is set up to show more than the last 7 days, it would do us no good to have the data from the similar DAYS summed. For example, if it were filtered to show time-stamps within the past 14 days, we would not want to just show 7 days on the X Axis (Monday-Sundayx1) as it is…
6 votesDATE and other new options in Date Rollup are now available in Caspio Bridge 12.0. Thank you again for your idea

Fix tabular datapages that use inline insert drop downs
Tabular datapages that have inline insert sometimes have dropdown menus that use an ID value to identify the lookup record- and shows the 'display value' so it's clear to the user what they're selecting.
The problem is in the recordset of the datapage below, that column will show the - normally hidden- id value and not the display value. This makes the datapages with inline insert look awful and unusable because it's confusing (the user doesn't know what the id numbers are for, they're expecting to see the display values).
This isn't an issue when in Edit mode or in…
5 votesThis feature is now available. Lookup field can now display user-friendly value instead of ID in reports.

Capability to copy part of the deploy code without the branding.
When branding is removed on the account level, I should be able to copy the deploy code without the branding. Currently it's a repeating process of copy and paste then delete the branding Div every time I deploy a DataPage.
9 votesBranding management is now an option within the deploy dialog and it removes all branding tags.

Note field on Datapage Data Source page
Desperately want a simple text area field on the initial DataPage Data Source page so I can enter notes about that page for easy reference in the future. With more complexity comes more of a need to remember what I did on the following pages and why

Email Scheduler
Would be great to have a datapage option that is an email scheduler...meaning the user would enter future emails into this datapage with a projected send date so the email will send automatically when that date/time comes up. This would enable the user to schedule reminder emails, task emails & other important emails that pull data from different tables and put it together for easy viewing. In a sense this would be an email generator datapage with date/time send capabilities. In my world of concerts, this would be very effective to remind bands, promoters, buyers and so on of things…

Cannot Save Chart as Image
Have datapages deployed as Graphs. Users want to export, print or merely save these graphs as images so that they can be used in other applications (such as including a graph in a presentation). However, when right-click the graph and save as image, the image is NOT exported. In fact, in IE an error is thrown. Only in Chrome can I get the Graph to print. It seems strange that simple Windows standard functionality is not supported. This is a poor implementation of this functionality for Graph DataPages within Caspio. I have actually opened a Help Ticket for this, but…

Allow users to be able to select the colors of their charts
In the pie charts, it would be nice to be able to choose colors related to the values being charted. The colors Caspio chose aren't very pleasing and there is no way to change them apparently. I would like red, yellow, and green in my pie chart.
8 votesIn 9.6 Release, chart colors can be customized in Styles. More information about Caspio Styles can be found at http://howto.caspio.com/styles/.
