Below is a tutorial video on how to create new Airtable records from a linked record picker in Fillout.

How to create new linked records

Add a record picker to your form. In the right-hand panel, enable Can create new records?.

If you’d like to customize the record creation form (e.g. to mark fields as required), click Edit record creation form.

That’s it! Your users can now click Create new to open up a form that lets them make a new record (associated with the linked record).

Modify the record creation form

Click on the Edit record creation form button to open and modify the form that’s used for adding new records.

Allow creating new records, but not selecting existing records

Enable the Only show new records to let users create new records only. When enabled, clicking the linked record picker opens the child form directly.
