The Airtable modulesThe module is an application or tool within the Boost.space system. The entire system is built on this concept of modularity. (module - Contacts) More allow you to monitor recordsOne row in the Boost.space database. These are individual rows under spaces in each module. For example single products, but not their variants. More and submitted forms or search, retrieve, create, update, and delete records in your Airtable account.
To get started with Airtable, create an account at airtable.com/signup.

After connecting the app, you can perform the following actions:
You can watch, create, update, search, retrieve, upsert, delete records, and watch responses using the following modules.
Returns all newly created or updated records in a view (required Created Time or Last Modified Time fields).
Connection |
Establish a connection to your Airtable account. |
Base |
Select the base that contains the table you want to watch for records. |
Table |
Select the table you want to watch for new records. |
TriggerEvery scenario has a trigger, an event that starts your scenario. A scenario must have a trigger. There can only be one trigger for each scenario. When you create a new scenario, the first module you choose is your trigger for that scenario. Create a trigger by clicking on the empty module of a newly created scenario or moving the... configuration |
Trigger field Select the If you do not have a LabelA label is a “tag” that can be added to items within a module. It's a flexible tool used to categorize and organize data, making it easier to customize workflows and processes. More field: used as a label for a recordOne row in the Boost.space database. These are individual rows under spaces in each module. For example single products, but not their variants. More. For example, Choose where to start dialog. |
Limit |
The maximum number of records Boost.space Integrator will return during one execution cycleA cycle is the operation and commit/rollback phases of scenario execution. A scenario may have one or more cycles (one is the default).. |
View |
Select the view to watch the records. If selected, it will return the records only in that view. |
Formula |
Enter the formula to filter records. For more details, refer to the Formula field reference documentation. The formula will be evaluated for each record, and if the result is not If combined with the For example, to only include records where Name isn’t empty, pass in
|
Use Column ID |
Select whether to use column ID instead of column name for mappingMapping links the modules in your scenario. When you map an item, you connected the data retrieved by one module to another module to perform the desired action. For example, you can map the email address and subject lines from the Email > Watch emails module to Google Sheets > Add a row and create a spreadsheet of email addresses.... This enables persistence over the column name change. Enabling this option allows to replace entity keys in the response; instead of entity names specified as parameter keys, their identifiers will be specified. Changing this value will break all existing mappings in this scenario. |
TriggersEvery scenario has a trigger, an event that starts your scenario. A scenario must have a trigger. There can only be one trigger for each scenario. When you create a new scenario, the first module you choose is your trigger for that scenario. Create a trigger by clicking on the empty module of a newly created scenario or moving the... when a new response is submitted.

The webhookA webhook is a way for an app to send real-time information to a specific URL in response to certain events or triggers. URL needs to be generated in Boost.space Integrator and added to the form configuration in the Airtable.
-
Add the Watch Responses module to your Boost.space Integratorscenario.
-
Generate and copy the webhook URL.
-
Log in to your Airtable account.
-
Open the Base and the table you want for the form and create a Form view.
-
Set the form as needed, scroll down the form, and enable the Redirect to URL after the form is submitted option.
-
Enter the Webhook URL generated in step 2 to the displayed dialog box and add the ?record_id={record_id}just after the webhook URL to include the Record ID in the module’s output, then click Save. The resulting URL will, for example, look like this:
https://hook.eu1.make.com/tgnp28pewooafbdgobvbh225hmocbn85?record_id={record_id}
-
Go back to your Boost.space Integratorscenario and run the Watch Responses module only to load the Record ID from Airtable and to be able to map that field into the other modules.
Note: Airtable only supports sending the
record_id
parameter. -
Submit the form in Airtable where the Redirect to URL after the form is submitted option is enabled and the Webhook URL is added (step 6 above).
The Watch Responses module is triggered and loads the Record ID.
-
Add the Airtable > Get a Record module just after the Airtable > Watch Responses module and map the record_id to the Record ID field.
Every time the form is submitted, the Watch Responses module in your Boost.space Integratorscenario is triggered, and the Get a Record module returns the submitted form details.
