Number (Integer) Fields
Learn about Integer Number fields in Noloco tables
Integer fields are optimized for holding whole numbers. They are essential when you need to count items or denote a rank, storing values like 5. These fields use numeric inputs and allow for customization by setting minimum and maximum value limits, providing control over the range of acceptable inputs.
Integer Number Field Formats
Default By default, the integer number field shows a formatted number such as 1,234,000
Currency Display the number as a currency, and choose the specific currency symbol. For example: £1,234,000
Rating Display the number as a star rating. You can configure how many stars should be displayed (the max value)
Unformatted This displays the number without formatting, such as 1234000. This is useful for numbers that aren't really numbers, like Postcodes, or Object IDs
Slider Displays the number as a slider when used as an input, and a visually similar progress bar otherwise. Configure the min, max, and step value of the slider.
Integer Field Options
Allow negative numbers Depending on the format chosen above, you can optionally enable or disable the use of negative numbers in the field, which will be enforced in all forms
Prefix Configure a prefix for your numbers, such as
USD 123,000Suffix Configure a suffix to your numbers, such as
12,000 Books
Use Cases
Integer fields are perfect for:
Counting items (inventory, users, etc.)
Rankings and scores
Quantities and amounts
Ratings and reviews
IDs and reference numbers (using unformatted display)
Progress tracking (using slider format)
Best Practices
Use Currency format for monetary values without decimals
Use Rating format for user feedback and scoring systems
Use Slider format for values within a specific range
Set appropriate min/max limits to prevent invalid data entry
Use prefixes and suffixes to provide context (e.g., "USD" prefix, "items" suffix)
