Dynamically Create Tables in Airtable for Your Webflow Form Submissions

Key Features and Highlights

This workflow automatically detects and dynamically creates Airtable tables specifically designed to store submission data from Webflow website forms. Whenever a new submission is made through a Webflow form, the system automatically creates a corresponding table in Airtable (if it does not already exist) and imports the submission data in real-time. This ensures a clear and manageable data structure without the need for manual table creation or coding, greatly simplifying the data synchronization process between Webflow and Airtable.

Core Problems Addressed

  • Automates management of multiple Webflow form submissions, eliminating the tedious task of manually creating and maintaining multiple Airtable tables.
  • Ensures each Webflow form corresponds to an independent Airtable table, enabling data to be categorized and stored by form.
  • Achieves real-time synchronization of Webflow form data, enhancing data management efficiency and accuracy.

Use Cases

  • Websites built on Webflow with multiple forms that require separate storage of each form’s data in Airtable for easier subsequent analysis and processing.
  • Need for a no-code automation solution to streamline data integration between Webflow and Airtable.
  • Marketing teams, product managers, or operations personnel seeking an easy way to manage and review user submissions from different forms.

Main Workflow Steps

  2. Prepare Form Submission for Workflow: Standardize and organize the submitted form data.
  3. Get Base Schema from List: Retrieve the schema information of the specified Airtable Base.
  4. Get Form Index Reference Table ID: Locate or initialize the reference table used to manage form indices.
  5. Does Index Reference Table Exist?: Check if the form index reference table exists; create it if it does not.
  6. Find Webflow Form Record in Form Index Reference Table: Search for the corresponding form record in the index table.
  7. Does This Webflow Form Table Exist?: Determine if the Airtable table for the specific Webflow form exists; create it if it does not.
  8. Insert Record in Form Index Reference Table: Write the association information between the new form and its Airtable table into the index table.
  9. Insert Record in Webflow Form Table: Insert the form submission data into the corresponding Airtable table.
