Create your own Airtable workflow

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

3 triggers, queries, and actions

New record created

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This Trigger fires every time a new record is created in a table. You can optionally configure it to only fire when a record appears in a specific view.

History of records created

Pro plus icon
Query
A query lets your Applet retrieve extra data that isn't included in the trigger, so that your automation can include more complete or useful information.
This query returns a list of every time a new record is created in a table. You can optionally configure it to only fire when a record appears in a specific view.

Create a new record

Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This Action will create a new record in a table of your choosing.
