How to create an Airtable form

Create your database in Airtable

If you already have your base created in Airtable, you can skip this step.

Log in to Airtable, and click Create on the lower left corner of your dashboard.Give your base a name, and create the fields you need. You’ll need one field for every question in your form (e.g., Single line text for a short answer, Single select for radio buttons, Multi-select, etc).If you are using the Select and Multi-select properties, make sure to type in the options you’d like people to choose from.Once you’ve added a field (and options, when needed) for every response field in your form, 90% of your work is now done.Nice work! Now you’re ready to sync it easily with a new or existing Fillout form.

Connect your database to your Fillout form

On your Fillout dashboard, create a form. Choose to Connect to Airtable.Select your theme (don’t worry, you can always change this later). Then, enter your Account name and Connect to Airtable.

After connecting, you can switch to use personal access tokens via the Integrations page.

After making the selections, click + Create form.

Don’t see your table in the dropdown list? Check you have connected to the correct base, and try refreshing the page.

Map your questions

Fillout pulls questions and answer options from your Airtable base. Your Airtable fields now appear in the left sidebar. Simply drag & drop to build your form.To connect a new question to your Airtable database, or check an existing connection, go to the dropdown menu inside Connected > Column to connect to in the right sidebar.

To update your Fillout form after editing your Airtable, click on the left-hand panel.
