Setting up a Slack-Airtable Integration

First, create a private Slack channel for your use. Name it yourname-airtable.

Then, set up the integration in Airtable (see video below).

1. Log in to Airtable.
2. If you have more than one base, navigate to the base you want to set up notifications for (example: FHS, Custom Reports, etc.).
3. At the top-middle of the screen, click on the dropdown next to the Base name and select Slack notifications.
4. Click Add a Slack notification rule (if you don’t see this button, skip to the next step).
5. Select your base and click Add to Slack.
6. In the “Post to” dropdown, choose the private Slack channel you created in Step 1 and click Authorize.
7. In the “What activity would you like to receive updates for” dropdown, change the answer to “Updates to records visible in a view”.
8. In the “Which view would you like to receive updates for” dropdown, choose the Airtable view that is tailored to your projects.
9. Click Done.
