Suppress redirect screen with Airtable "Watch Responses"?

How To
12

Hi Jean,
maybe I misunderstand, but I think you can just:

  1. add an automation that triggers when a record is created.
  2. Next use the “Run script” module.
  3. Define which values to use in the script (I often only send the record id and do a lookup of all neeed data in the make scenario).
  4. Create the make scenario that listens to a webhook.
  5. In the airtable automations “Run script” module call the webhook with the fetch function.
    Something like this
let inputConfig = input.config();
console.log(`The value of record_id is ${inputConfig.record_id}`);

let response = await fetch(`https://webhook.site/1dea3bf2-c9ba-4358-90c3-a6ccdfa3570c?record_id=${inputConfig.record_id}`);
// console.log(await response.json());

You can also update a hidden required field when submitting the form and trigger the automation when this is set.

I have many automations like this and it works pretty reliable.
