AirtableCreate a record in Airtable when an order is paid in Shopify
When an order is paid in Shopify, create a record in Airtable.
Start the 14-day trial, then find it under Templates → Library. It installs into the client you choose, switched off, with its checklist.
Every step, in order
When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.
- An order is paid
- An order whose payment went through, checked every 5 minutes; once per order. The app needs the read_orders scope.
- Create a record
- Add one row to a table. Field names must match the table’s columns.
- Starts whenAn order is paid
- App stepCreate a recordAirtable
What each client fills in
- Airtable: Base ID
- From the base’s URL: airtable.com/appXXXX/…
- 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.
Only for a store that already has an admin-created custom app. In the client’s Shopify admin: Apps → Develop apps → the app: its Admin API scopes must include write_customers and read_orders; the token is under API credentials (shown once when it is made; if it is no longer shown, generate a new one).
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.
After you install it
It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:
- Connect the client’s Shopify, for “An order is paid”
- Connect the client’s Airtable, for “Create a record”
- Fill in Airtable: Base ID (From the base’s URL: airtable.com/appXXXX/…)
- Fill in Airtable: Table (For example Leads)
- Match Airtable’s fields to the client’s own: Order number 1001, Their email, Total, Currency
