Typeform extension

1. When selecting the create tab at the top of the extension, you have the option to create a typeform using the fields in one of your tables. Each Typeform account can have many workspaces (not to be confused with Airtable’s workspaces). Select a workspace from the dropdown.
   

2. Next, you can choose any of your tables in the current base as the basis of your typeform.

3. Once your table is selected, the “Select fields” section allows you to choose which fields to include in the typeform. In the screenshot below, some fields have been named using the field type to show which Airtable field types are supported.

4. Toggle on the fields that will appear on the form and then click Create typeform.

5. When the newly created typeform is generated, you will be notified with links to both a live link and an edit link. This will be a good time to rename the form as it will be named “Generated a typeform (generated by [your name])” by default. You can further customize the design of the form by selecting “Edit on Typeform”. If you want the data captured by this new form to sync back to Airtable, please implement the second feature of the extension (see next section): importing responses from an existing typeform.

When you have collected responses through your typeform, you can manually import them into Airtable using the Import tab at the top of the extension.

1. First, select a Typeform workspace to view the available typeforms already created. Select the typeform with the responses you need to import and then select the destination table in your base.

2. In the “Field mapping” section, you can choose which fields to use to save the imported values. Once you map at least one value to a field, click the “Import typeform responses” button to complete the step. If you’re having trouble selecting your desired field in the dropdown, make sure that the field type in Airtable matches the field type in Typeform. For example, if you have an email input in Typeform, the mapped Airtable field type should also be email.

3. You can sync new responses from typeform by returning to the extension and clicking “Import new responses since last import” to fetch additional results.

If you are importing into a multi-select or single select field and the selections being imported from Typeform are not available as configured selections, the field will not update. Make sure all selections are configured correctly in the field and matches text formatting exactly.

Besides the Typeform extension, you can use the Typeform/Airtable Integration, configured in Typeform, to send responses to your Airtable base automatically.
