Airtable Integration

Airtable is a flexible cloud database that combines the simplicity of a spreadsheet with the power of a relational database. By pairing Airtable with CraftMyPDF you can turn any Airtable record into a fully designed PDF — event passes, invoices, contracts, certificates, product sheets, and more — generated automatically from a reusable template.

The integration uses Airtable's built-in Scripting app (or a custom Automation script) to call the CraftMyPDF REST API, so it works on any Airtable plan that supports scripts.

What you can build with the Airtable integration​

With this integration you can:

  • Generate a PDF for any selected record in an Airtable view with a single click.
  • Trigger PDF generation automatically when a record is created or a status field changes.
  • Map any combination of Airtable fields, lookups, and rollups to template variables as JSON.
  • Save the resulting PDF URL or attachment back into the same Airtable record.
  • Batch-generate PDFs across many records from a single script run.
