Frequently Asked Questions
Does Airtable integrate directly with Salesforce? ▼
Yes, Airtable has a native integration with Salesforce. It is available directly within the Airtable app marketplace.
Is the connection between Airtable and Salesforce secure? ▼
Yes. This integration typically uses OAuth 2.0, meaning you grant permission via a secure login window. You do not need to share your raw password, and you can revoke access at any time from your Airtable security settings.
Is the sync one-way or two-way? ▼
This is typically a one-way sync: Airtable → Salesforce. Changes in Salesforce do not sync back to Airtable.
Will existing data in Airtable sync to Salesforce? ▼
Usually, no. Most native integrations are "forward-looking," meaning they only sync data created or updated *after* you activate the connection. To move historical data, you will likely need to perform a one-time CSV export/import manually.
