Put together this video tutorial on how to create PDFs of certificates in Airtable with DocuPotion.

 

 

Topics covered include:

  • Structuring your table
  • Designing the PDF template
  • Linking the automation to a specific record
  • Triggering the automation when a user checks a ‘Generate Certificate’ checkbox
  • Using your own ‘template’

Any questions just let me know!

Hey ​@Alex_Cooney,

Thanks for sharing! I’ll need to implement dynamic invoices for a client of mine soon (within next 10 days), so it might be a great opportunity to give this a shot (not for certificates, but for invoices/POs).
If I do so, I’ll make sure to provide feedback :D

Completely different matter, but would love to have you join our Airtable Hackathon! Make sure to sign up!!
