Hey everyone. Im trying to find an easy way to send all my tables to firebase or the real time database. I’d like to use the data from the tables to feed information into several different web apps.

I’m very new to AirTable but I have significant experience with all sorts of IT and coding. I have searched both the help and the community and I am surprised this has not come up. I have seen references to using Zapier, etc. but that seems to be a complicated route versus making it a built-in feature. I would like to be able to create a table that can be used to catch emails sent directly to a specific email address for that table. Obviously, this would require AT to have an email infrastructure that could handle the incoming email, or, as another method, allow the user to create an email box in their own email system (Exchange, O365, Gmail, etc.) which AT would be able to access in order to grab the messages and populate the contents to the table. I would imagine this might be best done using a predefined template that would map to the appropriate email fields (sender/from, subject, body, attachments, cc addresses). This would be very similar to the way Slack, Jira, MS Teams, etc. allow email to be used as an input source for discussions, etc. I think this would be an excellent feature to include in the paid versions and would extend the functionality. For example, I am in the middle of a website rollout and would like to gather testing feedback from our team. Ideally, I would have testers use a form, but an email would also be an excellent “low friction” way for many of our testers to provide that info. Obviously, this would require some thought, but I do think it would improve collaboration capabilities. If this is something the AT community/product team has considered, I would love to know your thoughts. Thanks and thank you for such a great product that is a joy to work with.

It seems like Airtable’s Zapier action “New Record in View” doesn’t always trigger. This action ONLY triggers if a record appears in the view for the VERY FIRST TIME. However, if a record falls off the view — and then that very same record returns to the view at a later date — it DOESN’T trigger the Zapier action again. We actually need the ability for the Zapier action to trigger EVERY SINGLE TIME a record reappears in the view, whether or not the record has appeared in that view in the past. Thanks!

Hi Airtabl-expert, My name is Linh. My project AYA is creating a network of reusable cups for takeaways. Im creating an app to track users, participants and cups. My MVP built on Airtable is 70%. With 1 transaction, ideally, a participant will need to scan QR codes for each cup and for each user. However, there is no option to scan QR code from a form. Hence, there are many clicks for participants to scan. site 🙂 In this link below that shows the transaction form, a participant will need to type and search in a multiple drop-down menu. I think this feature would be important. The scanning QR code has become so huge, so popular. For an event, we can get attendees to self-check-in by scan the QR code of an event via " an arrial form". Would be so awesome if we can make this feature happen. P/S: if you have any suggestion for my site, let me know.

I was so excited when i saw the announcement that airtable would be integrating with adobe XD because adobe+airtable is such a great fit. But i would LOVE to be able to use my Airtable base – preferably a specific view – as a data source for creating variable data designs in illustrator. As seen here, https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/data-driven-graphics-templates-variables.html this features makes creating customized variable designs so easy, but currently you would need to export the data as a csv. A direct connection, would be, amazing.

Since Slack doesn’t allow embeddable HTML in messages, it would be great if sharable blocks could have the widget capability so the block is visible within slack messages. E.g. You slack the link to the shared block and Slack expands the link so you can see the block. Right now, Slack does not expand the link to show the preview. Other platforms enable this through a ‘widget’ enhancement.

I’d like the ability to create and save multiple drafts within the SendGrid block. We use it to send a handful of basically “evergreen” transactional emails. At the moment, we create drafts in a shared Google doc that include {field data} to personalize the messages. This isn’t too cumbersome, but occasionally we make improvements to the draft within SendGrid after reviewing the Preview – in these cases, if we don’t then remember to update the draft in the Google doc atferwards, we lose all our work. And that’s a bummer. thank you

Being able to organize “links” to bases in Google Drive is helpful, but not very useful in an enterprise or team setting unless Team Drives are supported. Right now, if I try to drag an Airtable base from the default “Airtable” folder in My Drive to a Team Drive, the error message “This type of file cannot be moved to a Team Drive yet” pops up. I know that Lucidcharts recently implemented Team Drive support for linked files, so it is possible. Thanks!

Are there any plans in the works to allow integration with Blocks using apps like Zapier? There are hundreds of uses for this I’m sure. In particular, I would love to be able to save a pdf from the page designer block and add it to a record based on the trigger of that record being added to a particular view.

I’d love to see integration with automate.io. It offers a lot more features and better pricing compared to Zapier for what I need to do.
