Cell display

A User field looks almost the same as a Select field. The table view shows it as a dropdown. Click the dropdown to select a user. If Allow adding multiple users is on, you can select more than one user.

  • If you remove a user from the workspace, the user is removed from the dropdown list. If the user is already assigned to a record, the record still shows the user, marked No longer a member of this workspace.
  • A record can hold a user who is not a member of the project. For example, this happens when you duplicate a project into another workspace. Grid cells mark this user Not a member of this base.
  • To remove a user from a record, click the x icon next to the user name.
  • If a user has no display name, the field shows the user's email address.

Current User Filter ☁

You can filter a view by the user who is currently logged in. Use this filter to make personal views that show only the records for that user. For more details, refer to Filtering records by current user.
