Airtable Integration

Automatically sync every form submission as a new record in your Airtable base. No code required — just connect your API key and Base ID.

How it works

When someone submits your form, Flowqen sends the data to the Airtable API and creates a new record in your chosen table. Every form field becomes a column, and a "Submitted At" timestamp is added automatically.

Setup in 4 steps

Takes about 3 minutes.

1

Create a Personal Access Token

Go to airtable.com/create/tokens and create a new token. Give it a name like "Flowqen", then grant it these scopes:

Required scopes:
data.records:writedata.records:read

Under "Access", select the specific base you want to connect (or "All current and future bases").

2

Find your Base ID

Open your Airtable base in the browser. The Base ID is in the URL:

Your URL looks like this:
https://airtable.com/appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/tblYYYYYYYYYYYY/...

The part starting with app is your Base ID (e.g., appAbC1dEfGhIjKlM).

3

Set up your Airtable table

Create columns in your Airtable table that match your form field names. Airtable will automatically match fields by name.

Example table setup:
Column NameField TypeMaps to
nameSingle line textForm "name" field
emailEmailForm "email" field
messageLong textForm "message" field
Submitted AtSingle line textAuto-added by Flowqen
4

Configure in Flowqen

Go to your form's Settings tab, then Integrations. Scroll down to the Airtable section and:

  1. aToggle "Enable Airtable integration" on
  2. bPaste your Personal Access Token
  3. cEnter your Base ID(starts with "app")
  4. dEnter the Table Name(default: "Submissions")
  5. eClick Save Settings

Automatic "Submitted At" timestamp

Every record Flowqen creates in Airtable automatically includes a Submitted At field with the ISO 8601 timestamp of when the form was submitted. To use it:

  1. 1Create a column named "Submitted At" in your Airtable table
  2. 2Set the field type to Single line text (or Date if you want Airtable to parse it)
  3. 3Flowqen will fill it in automatically with every submission
Example: 2026-04-03T14:30:00.000Z
Good to know:
  • Airtable syncing is fire-and-forget — it never delays or blocks the form submission
  • Column names must match your form field names exactly (case-sensitive)
  • If a column doesn't exist for a field, Airtable will ignore that field silently
  • Your API key is stored securely and never exposed to form submitters
  • You can use Airtable alongside Google Sheets, Slack, and all other integrations
  • Airtable has a rate limit of 5 requests per second per base — more than enough for form submissions
