I have a PDF Form already. Can it be used to fill a base tab?


Basicly, i have a Job Creation Request PDF Form we use for customers to fill out and submit to us and digitally sign too. I was hoping it can be used to fill in data as they submit it. Then our tech can access it and add to it hopefully. Otherwise at least letting the customer fill out the pdf and letting us keep a copy of the submitted file, while filling out a table in our base would be great.

I’ve never done this before, but you should be able to do this with a PDF API tool like PDFfiller.com that lets you extract data from fillable PDF files.

To automate & integrate this with Airtable, you could either write your own custom JavaScripts or use a low-code automation tool like Make.com, which has native support for PDFFiller and Airtable.
