How to Use Airtable to Share Migration Progress Reports with Customers in Real Time?

Hi everyone,

We're currently managing Microsoft 365 mailbox migration projects and using Airtable as a project tracking platform.

The migration itself is performed using SysTools Office 365 migration software, which generates detailed CSV reports containing mailbox status, migrated item counts, failures, timestamps, and other statistics.

What I'd like to do is automatically push those CSV reports into Airtable so customers can view migration progress in near real time through a dashboard or interface, rather than sending them updated spreadsheets manually.

Has anyone built something similar?

I'm considering a workflow where Airtable automatically imports the latest CSV data and updates customer-facing views. I'm curious whether people are using Airtable Automations, Make, Zapier, custom scripts, or another approach for this type of reporting.

Would appreciate any suggestions or examples from those who have implemented client-facing status dashboards.

Airtable lets you email CSVs and have them auto imported into tables if that helps: 

https://support.airtable.com/docs/airtable-sync-integration-emailed-data

Main limitation is that it can only do 10k rows at a time though

Yeah this makes sense.  You’d use the Dashboard layout and point it at the table where the data imports go and so anyone visiting that page would have the latest data all the time

    ​@SidHeart 

    If you’d like to automate the process of importing CSV files into Airtable, your #1 best bet for this is to use Make’s CSV modules along with Make’s Airtable modules.

    I demonstrate how to automatically import CSV files into Airtable on this Airtable podcast episode. This video will give you a step-by-step walkthrough on how to set this up in Make.

    If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve also assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread.

    Hope this helps!

    If you have a budget and you’d like to hire the best Airtable consultant to help you with this or anything else that is Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld
