I’m trying to create a form as follows;
- Based on the entry on one of the fields, I send out an API request with the field value.
- I get a result from the API and I show that in the form itself.
Is this possible?

Hey
You cannot achieve this natively using Airtable only. However, you can use Fillout forms, or any form provider that will allow you to re-direct the user to a different url AND where url paramters can be used on the url link (I don’t think Airtable meets the latter).
You would re-direct the user to a webhook url provided by Make, N8N, or other automations tool (more on these tools here), which should include url paramters for data needed for the API call.
You would then use your automation tool to make the API call.
You would then have a Webhook Response node/module on your automation tool and render an HTML with the data returned by the API call.
Not suuuper straight forward, but def fun! Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to go through this together on a brief call.

Yes, as
Below is a screenshot of the simplest & easiest way that this could be setup in Make.
