Setting up a Custom Airtable Form

Requires Pro Plus or higher

  1. Click Add Element

  2. Click Form to create a new Form element.

  3. Set Type to Custom, then Send to Airtable.

  4. Enter your Airtable Personal Access Token, which can be found by following these instructions.

  5. Enter your Base ID, which can be found by following these instructions.

  6. Enter your Table ID or table name, which can also be found by following these instructions.

  7. Click Fields

  8. Click the first field (labeled "Untitled") to expand it.

  9. Assign the field a short, descriptive Label. This label will appear either within the field itself or directly above it (depending on how you've styled your form).

  10. Set the field's Type. The following types are currently supported:

    TextAccepts a short, single line of text.
    EmailAccepts a valid email address (eg. user@domain.ext).
    Text AreaAccepts multiple lines of text.
    SelectAccepts a single option chosen from a dropdown menu. Options assigned to this field must match up exactly with the options you've set up at Airtable.
    CheckboxAccepts either a "checked" or "unchecked" state.
    PhoneAccepts a valid phone number.
    NumberAccepts a valid integer, decimal or currency value.
    DateAccepts a valid date (eg. 2016-03-07). When clicked, opens the browser's native date picker dialog.
    HiddenAccepts a single line of predefined text.
    File fields are currently not supported by our Airtable integration and will be ignored.
  11. (Optional) Configure any options specific to the field's type.

  12. (Optional) Check Optional to make the field optional.

  13. (Optional) Assign the field an ID. If omitted, an ID will be automatically generated based on the field's label.

  14. (Recommended) Assign the field an Airtable Field Name to link it to a specific field in your table. If omitted, the field's label will be used instead. In either case, this must match up exactly with the field's name at Airtable.

  15. (Optional) Assign the field a Default Value.

  16. Click Add to add additional fields, repeating steps 9 through 15 for each.

  17. With the form's fields now in place, click back to Form

  18. (Optional) Choose an On Success behavior.

  19. (Optional) Choose an On Failure behavior.

  20. (Optional) Click the Button tab and change the form's submit button Label.
