I’d love to see an integration or extension for Airtable that enables automated image generation using data from records. Many teams—especially in marketing, eCommerce, and sales—often need to create social media posts, banners, product visuals, or branded creatives. Doing this manually is time-consuming, especially when the content changes frequently.Use Case Examples: Marketing Teams – Automatically generate social media graphics or ad creatives based on campaign details in Airtable. E-commerce Businesses – Create product banners that update dynamically with new prices, SKUs, or images from Airtable records. Sales Teams – Generate personalized outreach banners using client-specific fields (like name, company, or offer). HR & Internal Comms – Design recruitment creatives, event posters, or announcemen

Hey community!!From March 1 to March 17 builders from all over the world have been really pushing Airtable to it’s limits working on their submissions for the Airtable Community Led Hackathon!I was absolutely impressed to see stuff built that I had absolutely no clue Airtable was capable of doing (I really mean it. In fact I submitted a small demo of my own as well, with features I did not know existed).If you want to get your mind blow away, make sure to take a look at the different submissions for this year’s edition (Theme: Let’s Play). Also, make sure to like those videos you enjoy the most, as the most liked YouTube video will be winning the Baefulencer award!!!!!!Mike, 

Hello to all Airtable fans!I am making a game on Airtable. It's a football manager or a football club simulator. When I started the development, I set a condition for myself - the game will be played using only the built-in functionality of Airtable - data, forms, interfaces, automations, scripts. No external integrations that take the game's logic outside. Developing this game for me is primarily about exploring the limits of Airtable's capabilities.The gameplay is quite primitive for now - you can buy/sell players, conduct training, send a team to a game, match generation, stadium expansion.I am now recruiting players for the first test season.Registration requires an Airtable account (I will share interfaces). A love for football or football managers as a game genre will be a plus)))For communication, we will use Slack.Follow the link for registration:

Hi!I've been building a platform called powersync that aims to provide easy-to-setup real-time functionality on top of Airtable. Besides an existing `schema changelog` engine that allows to track changes to fields and tables in an airtable base, the platform now also offers these bi-directional airtable record -> slack message flows.On the powersync side you select a base, table and a condition for sending messages to slack. But as opposed to native integration, the Slack message also updates if the Airtable record updates. And there's an option setup editable fields and custom flows on emoji reactions.I'd like to do more in this area, perhaps a configurable AI chatbot to do CRUD operations directly from Slack. Or sync of all slack messages back to Airtable.The overall goal here is to empower users where they already are (Slack) and allow them to do quick a

We recently completed an org-wide planning and goal-tracking project at the Doris Duke Foundation, and wanted to share the pattern in case it’s useful to others tackling similar challenges. The problem we were solvingLike many mission driven organizations, we don’t measure success with revenue or sales targets. Instead, we organize around long-term strategic goals (“North Stars”). And, I know the companies I’ve worked for need to track Objectives and Key Results in addition to revenue.The challenge was that our strategy lived across PDFs, decks, and docs: making planning slow, fragmented, and hard to translate into action. What we builtUsing Airtable’s app-building capabilities, we built Horizon: an org-wide planning and goal-tracking system that serves as a single source of truth for: Long-term strategic direction (North Stars) Annual enterprise

Did you know Airtable custom interfaces could generate SOUND 🎸🎸🎸?For sure, I didn’t. In fact, when thinking about what to build for the AT Community-Led Hackathon, I tried to find something that would really take Airtable to its limits.Something that shouldn’t be possible (and I could always go back to basics for my final submission). And… that’s how I came up with this version of Howie’s Rock Show. Think Guitar Hero, but running in Airtable.First Omni prompt:Create three buttons, assign different sounds to each. They should reproduce their sound when clicked.That actually worked (in one shot)!!!!So… I went all in. Great db architecture makes this so much fun: I created a Songs table, a Song Notes table (my Airtable version of the score/sheet music), and a Plays table.The Songs table includ

Ever since Airtable changed their Attachment URL expiry window to 2 hours, I had to setup automations using Make to upload files to S3.This worked great, but I recently build a custom extension to get this to work without using Make.So, I started building an Airtable extension to bridge this gap. The goal is to keep it all inside the Airtable UI (see the screenshot of what I have so far): You select your attachment field. The extension mirrors the file to a permanent bucket in the background. It writes the non-expiring CDN URL back to a field of your choice.

I faced this problem as we had to track daily metrics for each employee, which ended up generating dozens of records a day.  This became a problem pretty quickly for obvious reasonsAs a workaround, I ended up setting up a system to archive the old data while leaving the original base alone, and the steps are pretty much:Create a new base for archiving purposes Create a synced view and sync it to the new base In the sync settings, toggle on ‘Leave records when they are deleted or hidden in the source’ Create a heartbeat in the destination base This is important as syncs only happen on bases that have activity on them Set up an automation in the main base to delete the old records---1. Create a new base for archiving purposesI’m pretty sure everyone knows how to do this one, so I’m just going to skip it heh 2. Create a synced v

YES! Yes, yes, yes! They are finally here!!! Airtable is a relational database. As such, it allows you to link records from one table to record(s) from a different table and keep such relationship on both sides.However, there are interesting use cases in which you’d want to link records from one table to records from the exact same table. For example, you might want to have one unique table for Tasks and handle hierarchy between them (e.g. Parent task, and Sub Task(s)).When creating a linked record field to its own table, you would have seen that only one field was created (the one you did manually). You would call this field Child Tasks for example, and link through it the child tasks to any parent task. However, the inverse relationship (backlink) would not be tracked anyway -meaning which are the parent tasks for each child tasks. To such effect we used to have to create yet an ad

I'm Kevin, founder of TypeFlow. We help Airtable users generate and e-sign PDFs automatically.Until now, our tool required Google Docs for templates. It works well, but we kept hearing: "I'd use this, but my company doesn't allow Google integrations."So we built Template Builder - a visual HTML editor inside TypeFlow. You design your template, map your Airtable fields, and generate PDFs. No Google account needed.What it does: Drag and drop editor Dynamic tables that grow with your linked records Nested line items E-signature fields built in 20+ pre-built blocks (invoices, contracts, certificates) If you've been looking for a way to easily generate documents from Airtable without Google, happy to answer any questions.

Problem:If you’ve ever tried connecting Airtable with DocuSign through Make.com, you’ve probably realized how little documentation there is—especially about the nuances of how the DocuSign module actually works. It took me a lot of trial and error to figure out how to get everything syncing smoothly.Solution:In this tutorial, I show how to build a full document automation between Airtable, Google Docs, and DocuSign using Make.com—step by step. You’ll learn how to generate a document template from Google Docs, send it for signature via DocuSign, and track everything back in Airtable automatically.⚙️ What You’ll Learn:How to generate document templates in Google Docs from Airtable records How to send those documents through DocuSign using Make.com How to sync signed documents and signature statuses back into Airtable How to handle tricky module settings and webhook respo

Hey guys, I have been using Airtable for a few months now and am curious about potential cross overs to another of my favorite tools, Obsidian. Has anyone done any interesting experiments yet? or have any tips for me?

Airtable has just released a popup to allow cookies on all embed views making my app not usable anymore....Each time I refresh the page, the same popup is displayed !How can I get rid of this popup allowing cookie ?Thank you for your help!

Hi everyone,Many of you generate documents from Airtable (contracts, invoices, NDAs) and need signatures. The typical workflow looks like:Generate doc with TypeFlow (our core product is to automate the document generation with Airtable data). Zapier/Make sends to your favorite e-signature tool Signature collected Zapier brings it back to AirtableIt means 3 software (and subscription) to handle the whole document generation + signature flow. TypeFlow now handles the full loop by adding the e-signature featureAutomate your document from Airtable with TypeFlow Send for legally binding signature (ESIGN, UETA, eIDAS compliant) in TypeFlow Signed PDF automatically back in your base No Zapier, no e-signature needed, no fee per signature.Every signature includes:Audit trail (IP, timestamp, device) SHA-256 document hash

Hi everyone, I wanted to share something we’ve been working on that might help people connecting Airtable with their sales & marketing workflows.We’ve recently (re)launched an Outfunnel integration for Airtable that lets you: Sync contacts from Airtable to your marketing automation tool or CRM. You can segment who gets synced by Table and View.  Changes made in Airtable get synced over 24/7.  We started out syncing traditional CRM (e.g. Pipedrive, HubSpot) with marketing platforms and built the Airtable integration because we saw a growing number of businesses use Airtable as their main CRM. The integration is currently one-way only (from Airtable to the marketing tool or CRM) but we’re planning to make this 2-way soon. Currently supported tools:

Hello! This is a repost from the AI Incubator I was a part of at the end of 2025.I just wanted to follow up on the AI Plays webinar, quite a few people were interested in the custom interfaces but were not entirely sure what they were capable of and how to generate them. Now I can’t find exact prompts, when I’ve been testing I’ve kind of just given a vague explanation of what I’ve wanted the interface to do and then iterated and fine tuned with specific prompts to make changes to the interface. From my understanding, Custom Interfaces use React UI Component which is essentially JavaScript and then uses a Tailwind CSS to control styling and layout. That is the extent of my code knowledge at the moment but its pretty powerful and can make some really pretty interfaces, and aesthetics are my favourite thing to play with 😂. I apologise if this reads as a tutorial, but I thought it was the best way to show how to do it. Once you’ve got the data - I f

This blog post by Airtable recommends using Airtable as a DAM (digital asset management) tool.My company uses Airtable as a DAM, and when I was a consultant, I worked on projects involving using Airtable as a DAM. Airtable's blog article leaves out a few concepts that you should consider if you want to use Airtable as a DAM.- Most DAMs also provide CDN (content delivery network) services. Airtable has stated that it is not designed to be a CDN. The loss of permanent attachment URLs matches the idea of Airtable not being a CDN. If you want to use Airtable as a DAM, make sure that you don't also need it to be a CDN.- Most of the systems that I have built for using Airtable as a DAM involved at least one third-party service, and some use multipl

Hi folks, I thought I’d take a moment to share what we’ve built with Airtable. We call our product InspectorPrime. It is a business suite for home and commercial property inspectors. Our clients can purchase the system one time for a lifetime company license. This provides them with both a capable CRM/office management system and a report writing system. Overall, it allows these companies to own/customize (to an extent) their business software while saving them quite literally tens of thousands of dollars over current proprietary inspection software. I hope by sharing this others can see just how deep they can get into creating custom solutions for specific industries. Happy to answer any questions here or at jon@inspectorprime.com. 

We’re excited to announce that our Bulk Download Attachments app has been released on the Airtable Marketplace! Airtable
