Ply April Product Updates
It’s been a busy couple of months learning about your uses cases for Ply and working with you to make them happen. They’re been very fruitful for us: we’ve filled in lots of missing features and integrations that make all the difference 🙌
New table mapper interfaces
We’ve added a new interface that lets you clean up large collections of data by mapping columns to predefined properties. See a demo here.
Dropdown block supports options from a table source and adding new options
You can bring in options from a table, like a column from Google Sheets, so your dropdown is always up-to-date with data from your other apps. Many of you wanted to be able to add unlisted dropdown options, like when you use the dropdown for tagging, so we made that possible too.
New helpers
- Join Tables helper:Joins two tables based on matching or non-matching values in specified columns
- Import a CSV file:Turns a CSV file (from a file upload in a modal or a Gmail attachment) into a Ply table
- Compare Tables helper:Filters a table based on a table of values – useful for finding the overlap between two tables, their difference, and other relations.
- Find and Replace helper:Finds a text within a text and replaces it.
New interface element and view
- A block that checks whether a valid email has been entered
- A wide view for interfaces, good for tables with lots of columns
