Airtable is a browser app, so on Windows the web shortcuts are the Windows shortcuts: Ctrl is the modifier throughout. The grid behaves like a spreadsheet, and switching tables and views, filtering, and expanding records all work from the keyboard.
Ctrl is the modifier. Every combination in the table above uses Ctrl. On a Mac in the browser the same actions use Command instead, and that list has its own page.
Browser conflicts. Some combinations are claimed by the browser before Airtable sees them. Ctrl+W closes the tab and Ctrl+T opens a new one, so those stay browser actions rather than Airtable ones.
Grid and records. Cell copy, cut, and paste, range selection, and jumping to the edge of a table all work in the browser. Space expands the active record, and Shift+Enter inserts a record below the current cell.
Views and menus. Switching tables, views, and bases and opening the find, filter, sort, and group menus all work from the keyboard. Ctrl+/ opens Airtable's own shortcut list inside the app.
The Airtable shortcut list for the browser on Windows is available as a printable PDF, with Ctrl as the modifier throughout.
Yes. Airtable is a browser app, so the shortcuts work wherever you run it. On Windows they use Ctrl. A few combinations, like closing or opening a browser tab, are handled by the browser instead of Airtable.
Ctrl. Airtable follows the operating system, so the browser on Windows uses the same Ctrl combinations as the Windows desktop app. On a Mac the browser uses Command instead.
Because the browser claims some key combinations before the page sees them. Ctrl+W closes the current tab and Ctrl+T opens a new one. These are browser shortcuts, not Airtable ones, so use Airtable's own keys for the same kind of action where one exists.
Press Ctrl+/ in a base. Airtable opens its own searchable shortcut panel, which is also where the Toggle extensions shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+) is documented.
