I manage an instance of SF at a company of 50+ employees. I would like to build an airtable base that generally mirrors it, but is better, and then establish a sync between the base I build and Salesforce. Has anyone done anything like this? Was the documentation helpful enough for me to rely on it to do a project like this?

I haven't looked into the Salesforce integration, but you might want to know that Airtable recently changed its tiers so that the Salesforce integration is now only available to the Business and Enterprise plans, which is more than double the cost of what it used to be.

You may want to check out Makes’s Salesforce integrations, which allows you to build your own custom syncing solution between Salesforce and Airtable.

There is a small learning curve with Make, which is why I created this basic navigation video to help. I also provide the links to a few other Make training resources there as well. For example, here is how you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.

Hope this helps! If you’d like to hire the best Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

Are these automated messages?  Or are you actually putting thought into these posts?  Kind of spammy with the affiliate links…

Are you bored with nothing to do? Offer help or bounce. Kind of jerky with the unhelpful posting...

Totally agree, @rduke. Check out his profile. Notice that he has been a member of the community since 2019, yet he has never once given any help to anybody in almost 5 years now.

Hey @rduke - I know it's been a while since this was posted. What was your result? I am looking to do similar things for my org where Airtable is the main user interface but all data is fed back to salesforce. Would love to know what worked or didn't work for you! Thanks!

Hey @rduke  @cshaw314 - I have developed an extension(Salesforce Connector ) that allows you to create, update, and delete data in Salesforce using information from Airtable. Additionally, it can synchronize reports and data from Salesforce. If you're interested, you can try it out to see if it meets your needs.

@medfuturexai

You can create your own custom syncing solution between Airtable and Salesforce by using Make’s Salesforce integrations & automations.

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

For example, here is how you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.

I also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances here.

@medfuturexai 

Hi, my connector(salesforce connector ) can update data from airtable to salesforce. You need to:

1) Select the Salesforce object to be operated.

2) Specify the Table and Field in Airtable.

3) Specify which field stores the Salesforce object ID

4) Map the table field to the object.

5) Run your request.

6) The result will be saved in the Result Field of Airtable.


Feel free to shoot me an email (support2@funshowtech.com). Hope this helps you.

@David6  Can you please provide any video tutorial for that? Did this connector is paid or it free of cost?
