Airtable integration

Generate documents and visuals from Airtable records.

Connect an Airtable base, map record fields to a template, and generate files when records are created or updated.

What it does

Use Airtable as the source for repeatable generation.

Turn records from your Airtable bases into generated documents, images, and files without moving the data into another system.

Business records can become invoices, proposals, contracts, letters, reports, or similar documents.
Operational tables can produce certificates, receipts, labels, badges, forms, and other recurring files.
Content calendars and product tables can generate banners, social images, product graphics, and campaign assets.
CRM, project, event, and order records can feed any template that needs personalized data.
If a workflow starts from structured Airtable data, Automette can generate the final output from it.
How it works

From Airtable record to generated file in four steps.

01

Connect Airtable and choose your data

Authorize Automette with OAuth, then pick the Airtable base and table for the workflow.

02

Select a template

Use an existing Automette template or create one for the document, image, or visual you want to generate.

03

Map fields and trigger

Match Airtable fields to template variables, then generate from new records or updated records.

04

Save the output

Attach the generated file back to Airtable, write a URL to a field, or send a webhook.

Field mapping

Map Airtable fields to template variables.

A template can use text, dates, numbers, images, and linked-record data. Airtable fields become the input values.

For update-based workflows, use a dedicated status field such as Ready. That keeps generation controlled while records are still being edited.

Example mapping
Customer Name{{customer_name}}
Record Date{{date}}
Amount{{amount}}
Hero Image{{image}}
StatusTrigger condition

Outputs

Send the result back to Airtable, or anywhere else it needs to go.

Attachment field

Save the generated document or visual back to an Airtable attachment field.

URL field

Write the generated file URL to a text or URL field for use in Airtable views and automations.

Webhook

Notify another system after generation completes, including the generated file URL.

Generation history

Review every generation inside Automette, including status, template, and credit usage.

Get started

Connect Airtable and generate from your first record.

Start with one table, one template, and a status field. Expand the workflow once the output looks right.
