Make users able to change field slugs for better API capabilities
lorenzo
Allow us to define the 'slug' field during the initial creation of new fields. Currently, comprehending the JSON returned when retrieving records with numerous fields can be challenging, as it displays auto-generated slugs containing random characters. If we can set the slug ourselves and mandate its uniqueness, it will enhance the readability of HTTP responses, thereby simplifying their utilization.

I want to whole-heartedly endorse this. The current API is basically unusable outside of the native integration with make. Debugging slugs and filters in the current format is nearly impossible, as we have no way of detecting and knowing what is going wrong without manually inspecting every field. Building any kind of workflow using the current API takes 10 times longer than in Airtable because of of this. I don't have tine for it.
