Frequently asked

Does Airtable integrate with Google Sheets? +

Yes, in a few ways. Airtable imports a sheet once, and its automations can append rows to a sheet or find and update records. With Letaido, Leta reads a whole view or sheet tab and writes to the other app in one job, like the ones above.

What do I need to connect Airtable and Google Sheets to Letaido? +

In Letaido, paste an Airtable access token, then add Google Sheets through your own Google Cloud OAuth client. Then paste a prompt from this page or describe the job in your own words.

What should I tell Leta about my sheet and base? +

Include the spreadsheet URL in the request, as each prompt here does with [sheet link], plus the tab name. On the Airtable side, give the base and table names, such as the 'Campaigns' table in your 'Marketing' base.

How do I download Airtable to Google Sheets every day? +

Save it as a scheduled job. Each morning Leta copies the records in the view you name to one tab, replacing the previous rows and keeping the header row. The copy is one way. Edits in columns A:F below the header are replaced on the next run; the header and columns after F are left alone.

Can I import a Google Sheet into an existing Airtable table? +

Yes. Ask, and Leta adds or updates one record per row, matched on Email, then marks each row Added, Updated or skipped with the reason. Blank cells are left out, so a field that already has a value keeps it.

Will Airtable and Google Sheets stay in live sync? +

No. Letaido's Airtable and Google Sheets connectors have no triggers, so editing a record or a cell won't start anything. Jobs run when you ask or on a timer, like every morning at 7am.

Do I have to approve changes to my base or my sheet? +

Allow all read operations once per app; approve each kind of write once.
