I'm new with Zapier Tables and Interfaces. Just the first experiment.
I would like to publish (embed) an interface using the “table component” with raws sorted as I want. Not like the order of the reference table.
I know it is possible to create table views with the order i need.
Would be possibile to link that view to the interface?

Hello there,
It’s not possible to display a specific view or sort the records but you can add dynamic filters to the table that’s displayed to potentially recreate a similar view.
To do that you’d need to hover over the table and click on the edit button:
Next, click on the Data tab, then click on the Filter + button:
Set up the relevant filter(s):
That will then filter the table records as per the filter conditions:
Hope that helps to get you pointed in the right direction. If you run into any issues on that just let me know - happy to help further! 🙂
I wish I could sort by a column header on the lower plans, it seems like a basic feature that would be appreciated. Or some parts of filtering that don’t require Advanced (if I don’t need most of the other features), like non-user-specific sort order that’s viewable by everyone.
Earlier in an email on a related note, I requested a way to sort date reverse-chronologically.

That’s correct
I couldn’t see a recent email in the system here that spoke about sorting by date in reverse order, was that regarding a different app that you wanted to have that functionality in as well?
To sort the records in a table component you would have to manually do that by clicking on the sort icons for that column when viewing in on the Interfaces page:
But that would only sort the records for you as you’re viewing it. The original sorting would remain for anyone else viewing the table as it isn’t possible to set the sort order on the table component itself so that everyone viewing it will have custom sorting applied. I couldn’t see any existing feature requests to have that sort of functionality added it may be worth submitting that idea to the Interfaces team here.
Sorry to not have better news on that but hope the above helps to clarify things. Let me know if you have any further questions at all!

Thanks for clarifying that
Once that idea has been submitted and a feature request has been opened, we’ll be able to start tracking interest in that and let you know if/when it’s implemented. 🙂
