When mapping a WordPress CF7 with airtable, Airtable allows Contact Form 7 to write into the field Email if it's an "Email" field-type, but not if i convert it to a linked table.

I would like that the field "Email" inside of the table Messages links to a table named Email, where Email is the PK. Like this we'll be able to see all related messages.

Unfortunately CF7 outputs an error with this setup. Is it there a workaround? Or should be build an airtable automation that reads the contact form user input that goes into the (unlinked) Email field and updates another field named LinkedEmail?

So, either CF7 links messages to the Emails table, or we will have to auto-link using an automation.

What's your opinion on that?

Using an automation is probably your best bet unless you can modify the code that that does the update between Wordpress and Airtable
