If I have multiple client projects that use the same structure, is there a way to duplicate or import the starting data so I have all the project tasks and milestones set up for each new client.
It is annoying if I have to create everything from scratch for each new client.
Sample ‘ dummy data across linked tables
- Make a new base with all the table/field configurations
- Add in a couple records to it with your dummy text, export this data as a .csv just in case
- When you get a new client, duplicate your starter base
- Rename your duplicated base for your new client. Your table configurations should already be set.
Thanks Kamille,
However, I maybe wasn’t really clear in my description.
I don’t want a database for each new client, I want them all in one base, so I don’t think this method will help.

In that case, I don’t think so using Airtable-only functions. You would need to make a Zapier integration that will duplicate task records in Table B every time a new client is added to Table A.
Your idea of the CSV file makes me wonder if I can do a less automated route. I can still copy and paste things in from a csv file - I’d still need to link manually but wouldn’t have to retype everything.
