Fix Integromat Integration

[Julian_Kirkness]

As many here have probably discovered, Integromat provides an amazing degree of flexibility when it comes to building integrations and logic for Airtable.

However, there is one huge issue and that is the flaky nature of the connection between Integromat and Airtable during the development process, where you have to wait ages while the Airtable API limits reset. Integromat tell me this could be fixed if AT provided access to their Private API (is that the correct term?) which must be being used by Zapier already?

I would really like to see this issue resolved as Integromat provides much more flexible and simple to use logic which can really transform a Base’s usefulness!

Is integromat reliable once setup Julian?

[Julian_Kirkness]

Yes - it only seems to be an issue when setting up.

Would love this as well. Config is painful when it times out every 5 min

[Julian_Kirkness]

Six months and no response on this!

Integromat is incredibly powerful when combined with Airtable - it really can provide the missing language AT needs - but the process of building any complex scenarios is painful indeed - although they work well.

I’ve also made this a request in the Integromat Feature Requests space:

Hi

I too have encountered this. It’s quite annoying.

My understanding, according to Integromat, is that this has to do with Airtable API. Apparently, Airtable are only allowing very limited access to Airtable’s API by Integromat. Now, I don’t know if this might have to do with Zapier, since Zapier has a more accessible API with Airtable.

This I don’t know.

Yes - Airtable and Zapier seem close - and I heard much the same from Integromat last year.

It’s a shame as Integromat has many feature which are really needed for Airtable!
