Description

Tired of copying form entries into Airtable by hand? Integration for Airtable is the WordPress to Airtable connector that links your WordPress forms directly to Airtable so every submission becomes a new Airtable record — automatically, instantly, and without breaking your form. Connect WordPress to Airtable in minutes. No code, no third-party tools, no Zapier — just install the plugin, enter your Airtable API key, and you have a direct airtable wordpress plugin running inside your site.

Whether you’re using WPForms, Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7, Ninja Forms, Fluent Forms, Formidable Forms, or Elementor Forms, this plugin gives you a clean, reliable way to send form data to any Airtable base and table you choose. Set up a connection, map your fields, and every new form submission flows into Airtable in the background — no manual work, no Zapier account, no Make (Integromat) subscription required. Populate Airtable from WordPress forms automatically. Send form entries to Airtable, form responses to Airtable, form results to Airtable — all handled for you. It works as a form builder to Airtable bridge regardless of which form plugin you use.

It just works — your form submits normally, Airtable gets the record.

How It Works

  • Connect your form — Pick your form builder and the specific form you want to sync.
  • Choose your Airtable destination — Select which Airtable base and table should receive the records.
  • Map your fields — Match each form field to the right Airtable column name. The plugin handles formatting automatically: dates, numbers, checkboxes, and single-select values all land in Airtable in the correct type.
  • Submit and sync — When a visitor submits the form, the plugin stores the entry and fires a background sync request. Your form responds instantly to the user while the Airtable API call happens separately — so slow or failing API calls never block the form or show errors to your visitors.

  • No third-party automation required — Everything runs inside WordPress. No Zapier, no Make, no Pabbly, no n8n subscription needed (though you can still use them alongside this plugin if you want).
  • Airtable REST API — Uses the official Airtable REST API to create records. Configure your Airtable API key and optionally a default base in the plugin settings.
  • Developer-extensible — Add support for additional form builders by implementing Form_Integration_Interface and registering via the rsifa_form_integrations filter.
