Send an email in Postmark when a record is added in Airtable

When a record is added in Airtable, send an email in Postmark.

Every step, in order

When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.

A record is added
A new row in a table, checked every 15 minutes. The token needs data.records:read.
Send an email
Plain-text email from a verified sender.

What each client fills in

Postmark: From
For example Northside Plumbing <hello@northside.example>
Who it goes to (Postmark)
The address that gets it: yours, or the client’s team.
Airtable: Base ID
For example appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Airtable: Table
For example Leads

The accounts it needs

Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.

  • Airtable

    airtable.com/create/tokens → Create token → scopes data.records:write and data.records:read (lookups and the triggers) → add the client’s base → copy the token.

  • Postmark → the client’s server → API Tokens → copy the Server API token. The From address must be a confirmed sender signature or on a verified domain.

After you install it

It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:

  1. Connect the client’s Airtable, for “A record is added”
  2. Connect the client’s Postmark, for “Send an email”
  3. Fill in Airtable: Base ID (For example appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX)
  4. Fill in Airtable: Table (For example Leads)
  5. Fill in Postmark: From (For example Northside Plumbing <hello@northside.example>)
  6. Fill in Who it goes to (Postmark) (The address that gets it: yours, or the client’s team)

Thrum is cooking.
