We're trying to use Airtable forms to track customer leads for conversion/remarketing ad campaigns, but confirming a form submission is very difficult. We currently redirect to a confirmation page on our site that fires conversion tracking tags, but because the redirect delay is so long we're worried prospects will close the page before they activate those tags.

When building a form, we'd love options to:

  • Set the redirect delay time (including the option for no delay)
  • Customize the redirect page text/design (so it can show a message that's more engaging than just the redirect URL)

Yes, I would love this feature! I've often felt like the redirect is not effective, because it gives too much time for the user to close the window before the redirect happens.

Your best bet for getting this feature RIGHT NOW is to use Fillout (advanced forms for Airtable, because Fillout's redirects are INSTANTANEOUS!

As SOON as the user hits the submit button, Fillout IMMEDIATELY goes to the redirected page.

There is not even an intermediate page... it just goes straight to the redirect.

So this would be your best option for now!

Also, if that wasn't great enough, Fillout is 100% free and it offers hundreds of features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer, including the ability to update Airtable records with a form, display Airtable lookup fields & Airtable rollup fields & Airtable attachments & formulas on forms, dynamically & conditionally filter linked record fields by any values that you would like, perform math or other live calculations on your forms, accept payments on forms, create multi-page forms with conditional paths, create new linked records on a form, display as many fields as you want to see in a linked record selection list (including attachments), connect a single form to dozens of external apps simultaneously, limit the number of linked records that can be chosen, set advanced field validations & limitations, upload an unlimited amount of attachments simultaneously, add CAPTCHAs to your form, add choice matrixes to your forms, direct integration with hundreds of apps like Calendly & Google Maps on your forms, and so much more. 

Hope this helps! If you’d like to hire an expert Airtable consultant to help you with anything Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

Hey there, this is something that works much better in our miniExtensions Form. It features lots of customization settings when it comes to redirects. You can decide to show a message to the user first, or redirect immediately, for example. You may also choose to use an Airtable field as the redirect target. If you make that field a formula field that shows a different link based on what has been entered in the other fields you can do conditional redirects with ease, which adds a whole other layer of capability!

You can also trigger webhooks after a form is submitted and track events this way!
