Could you show screen shots of your Zap and Airtable view?  Also what is the email system you are using?

@Parvinder - 

 

What are you looking to do here? Send an email to a new record in Airtable?

 

Thanks!

OK, @Parvinder, great!

 

You should be able to do this without the Find in the middle. Just Trigger = New Record in View and Action = Send Email (or create draft).

So apparently its working but its takes 15 minutes to send an email after the new record appears in airtable

That makes sense! Not all zaps are instant. The triggers and actions that are are flagged.
