Airtable export → dashboard

Your Airtable view, as a dashboard.

Airtable exports one CSV per view. Bases vary, but the pattern doesn't: drop the CSV here and every single-select field — Stage, Owner, Source, Priority — becomes a clickable breakdown, with any number field summed and a date field driving the trend.

01 · How it works

Export, drop, done.

Airtable bases differ wildly, but exported views all share a shape: select fields are categories, number fields are metrics, date fields are the trend. Any view with those works here.

i. export

Download a view

Open the view you want, click the view name or ... menu → Download CSV. Each view exports the fields and filters you see on screen.

ii. detect

Fields become breakdowns

Single-select fields like Stage, Owner, Source and Priority read as categories; a number field like Value reads as the metric; Created or Close Date drives the trend.

iii. read

Splits, totals, segments

See value pooled per stage and owner, then click any value — every other field's breakdown and the total recompute for that segment.

02 · The views

Dashboards without an Interface or paid block.

The summary you'd build with grouping and a chart extension — straight from the exported view, no add-on.

  • 01

    Every select, charted

    Each single-select field becomes a ranked breakdown automatically — no manual grouping, no chart block to configure.

  • 02

    Value per group

    Point a number field at any category and it sums per slice, so value-by-stage or value-by-owner falls out instantly.

  • 03

    Any view, same flow

    Bases differ, but the export pattern is constant: a date, a number and a few selects is all it takes to build the same dashboard.

  • 04

    Base data stays local

    Record names, owners and values are parsed in your browser — nothing from your base is uploaded anywhere.

"Our base is a mess of custom fields, but the exported view just worked — value by stage in one drop."

03 · FAQ

Airtable dashboard questions.

Which Airtable export works?
Any view downloaded via the view's ... menu → Download CSV. As long as it has a date field, a number field and a few single-select fields, it builds a dashboard.
Yes. Bases vary, but the dashboard reads structure, not specific names: single-selects become breakdowns, numbers become summed metrics, a date drives the trend.
Yes — a Value or amount field is summed per group, so you get value-by-stage, value-by-owner and the like without any grouping setup.
No — the CSV is parsed entirely in your browser. Record names, owners and field values never leave your machine.
Yes — any table CSV with a date, a number and category columns builds the same way, and there are dedicated pages for several of those tools.
