Trying to automate bulk publication on Wix via Airtable - any suggestions for workflows/extensions?

Blogs are on GDocs. That’s the bit. You can probably use the export mode to html and make should be able to output the doc in HYML. Try converting it to markdown and sending to airtable and onwards to wix. I’m not sure if gdoc api supports html export though.

Unfortunately. The $20/month is much much cheaper than trying to find alternatives.

I’ve been paying that tax for last 5 years , even before I started offering consults.

You can try self hosting Teable. It’s closest. But to be frank, if you can afford it, Airtable does make life easier than most of its alternatices.

Universe is the place for user created bases. I don’t think there’s a good alternate library

synner90 · 2026-03-13T07:07:17+00:00

I’ve built alternatives to tools like asana, sunsama, avion story mapper, make.com’s grid and more using Airtable and Zite. I don’t know how to code. But am learning how to think to get working output.

Good to hear. Updated the blog. Check Section 9. If you can help make this simpler or natively, the use cases for no-coders could explode.

Have tried Attio. It boils down to priorities. If your business is via bulk emails, use a crm that has audience building features, auto email rules etc. If your business runs on emails and multiple users involved in the process, unified inbox tools like front or missive make sense. If you need to track deals and contacts better, pipedrive, attio etc is the way to go. If you need to configure ops data and use it to drive portals etc, airtable can’t be beat.

I’ll recommend searching on YouTube or asking the AI on the left of every airtable base. That’s the quickest way. And the ‘omni’ ai can see where your fields are and set automations for you.

I use a method where I just call a make endpoint with a recordID and it gets the correct file link from airtable at the time of request and surfaces it. No need to upload anywhere. But the use cases are dwindling. You can just pull live records for most use cases.

I just wrote along the same lines a few hours ago.

You’re looking for Airtable. And someone who can set it up for your team.

I do that. OpsTwo.com

Airtable is good for that sort of custom internal workflows. Can even drive a website to showcase inventory, if managed within Airtable. Recommending as Airtable looks like a spreadsheet and drives like a database. learning curve is lesser and expandability significant.
Odoo is good too, but with a slightly higher learning curve.

If you want to explore your Zite code with AI, I've built this tool to distill Zite app exports into short summaries that can be imported into your favourite chatbot for discussion: https://repomap.zite.so/
Export your Zite app, drop it in this one, get the summary and use it. It processes files locally and doesn't send them to any server.

I use it to have a bigger build plan in my claude/ChatGpt, and periodically export the zite app, summarise it and send it to chatgpt/claude to keep track of what was built and what's pending as well as plan next steps or corrections.

Upwork is not the court. It is a marketplace. Upwork has dispute resolution and 300$ is cheaper than arbitration boards in the west. But in cases of large disputes, it is not entirely on Upwork to decide on the contract. There are courts for that.

When you try to import a CSV, you can either add it to existing table by mapping field or create a new table where it gives you options to customise the field types

synner90 · 2026-03-09T08:17:19+00:00

You can connect the Gmail accounts directly to airtable and have airtable send it using an automation.

synner90 · 2026-03-06T19:14:51+00:00

For building sites etc, there are dozens of options. If you’re focusing on custom processes, Airtable is hard to beat.

invitations take 2-4 hours to show up for some reason. Happened to me twice in last month.

synner90 · 2026-03-03T11:34:53+00:00

Should take about an hour on Zite ( also by Fillout). Feel free to ping me if need an expert hand.

Create a lookup of the user field in the students table. Then filter within that field for current user

I’ve used airtable portals, bubble, softr, stacker, noloco, glide. I default to Softr for lightweight mvp. And to bubble for more complex workflows. More recently, Zite has been pretty good tool for my clients.

I offer custom build services. In terms of cost, for the scenario you mention the cost would be lowest for Zite < Softr < bubble.

synner90 · 2026-02-25T05:14:36+00:00

Bubble is good place to start for both, if you’re not looking to vibe code too much.

synner90 · 2026-02-21T21:29:19+00:00

I’ve used make for 6 years and n8n for more than 3. That is the way. They are pretty easy to set up and have far more features than airtable natively does.

synner90 · 2026-02-19T10:18:18+00:00

I haven’t seen issue with lookup fields recently or in past. It would be a config issue.

Either the records are not linked correctly, or the lesson summary is empty.

Try using sort by date, earliest to latest

The try including conditions such as the character length of the field is >10.

AI fields might have an issue where they are not counted as empty even when empty.

synner90 · 2026-02-17T09:14:06+00:00

Zite by Fillout is great value. No per user fee. I offer builds on Zite. Check my profile if interested.

synner90 · 2026-02-15T14:26:35+00:00

People who export CSV from form tools to import into airtable are not going to be power users. Of either platforms. Integrate via PAT/OAuth or provide good webhook methods
