![]() ![]() ![]() Now in order to map the kobotoolbox answer to the airtable base you need to run the scenario once: If all it is good now you can chose the base and the table you want to link in the menu of the module and the record list will appear: In Make, on the airtable module click on add, give it a name and copy paste the API key form airtable. You need now to connect make to your airtable base via the API token (more info on how to get it if you don’t know how here). Then click on Airtable and then Click on Create a Record. Go back to the Make Scenario maker, click on add another module and search for airtable: Now Make receive the data of the survey that are answered! That is very important, so that the webhook can determine the data structure of the survey and you can associate it with your airtable base. Open the survey in kobotoolbox and answer it, leaving no empty field. On the pop-up that open give the Service a Name and paste the link of the Make Webhook: Then click to REST SERVICE on the left menu and on REGISTER A NEW SERVICE: Now go to Kobotoolbox and open up the form you want to link. First element you add is a Custom Webhook:Ĭlick on Add on the Pop-up window and copy the webhook address: In Make, you start from scratch with a blank scenario. The first to scenarios are free, so you can try this solution with a couple of forms. I will tell you more about it soon, with examples, if I have time, because it is obviously easier to copy and paste Code than Scenarios full of parameters.I’ve done that through Make (former Intergomat). INTEGROMAT complete Airtable with the NoCode as I dreamed it would be! INTEGROMAT is a Nocode and Automation experience that already leaves me very enthusiastic: the UX is fighting in the lead with Airtable outstanding on this point as well. Indeed Airtable Support by Integromat seems very rich, and extensive, without having made use of everything either before writing these lines. I admit that I finally tried INTEGROMAT after feeling that I lacked the time to write a lot of GAS myself, although I was clearly inspired to (learn to) write it and I think it will still make sense once I have tested a first workflow with the help of NoCode by collecting feedback and reading my logs in my sheets.Īfter a brief familiarisation with this INTEGROMAT environment (through an infinite number of online tutorials), after one hour and then two terrible hours of trying to connect my personal Google account (paid-tiers 100 GB storage) without success using procedures as cumbersome as setting up an EC-two before finally hoisting it to the level of Google Workspace, a river of pleasure was waiting for me! I would recommend turning to Integromat, which is a professional low-code automation platform that has full 100% Airtable support, and doesn’t have ANY of the automation limitations that you will find in Airtable or Zapier. (I am a professional Airtable consultant and a Registered Integromat Partner, and the Integromat link contains my personal referral code.) If you need an expert to help you get setup with Integromat, please feel free to contact me through my website at. There is a bit of learning curve to Integromat. It can also serve as communication between your Airtable database and other web services. It has no limits, its automations can be professionally scheduled, it has thousands of powerful features that go way beyond the capabilities of Airtable’s automations, and you can purchase more automation runs if you use up your allocation. You might want to turn to Integromat, the professional & powerful automation platform. Think about your business being forced to shut down for the rest of the month, because Airtable doesn’t let you purchase more automations to finish out the month. And to make matters worse, if you go over your allocated amount of “automation runs” in a month, Airtable gives you ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to purchase more automations at all! You have to wait until THE NEXT MONTH to be able to run your automations again! I don’t know anybody for whom this WOULDN’T be a deal-breaker. I haven’t tried this myself yet, but my guess is that you could probably set up extra bases to sync tables from your original source table, and then setup 25 automations in each one of those additional bases.īut that’s a really messy way of doing things. Welcome to the community, know, it seems nuts, but Airtable has limited the number of automations to 25 per base (and 25 actions per automation). ![]()
