Hey there!
Anyone know how to link Airtable bases? We have project requests that come into our company Airtable Base. Right now we have a zap to help those request copy into our vendor Airtable bases… but we have to manually update both bases as status and info change. I would love to find a way to link these bases so when one project is updated in the vendor airtable base, it automatically updates the project is updated in our company base. Anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!
K

Thanks for asking this question! I am interested in similar functionality, namely understanding if there’s an ability to write data from one Base to another base serving as a ‘summarized’ reporting base within Airtable itself (and not have to use Zapier)

@Kelley_Correia, circling back on your question, the solution we found was actually using Multi-step Zaps with Zapier to perform filtered Update operations on records in one base when the corresponding base in another has been updated by a user.

You will need to make sure you have Ids on your records that you can reference and filter against.

Does this help?

It does, a little. What do you mean about the ids on our records?
