This post is dedicated to providing updates on bug fixes, enhancements, and new features added to the Airtable <> Zapier Integration. Please refer to the comments below for the latest information changes.

  • Feature: Find Record and Find Many Records searches can now do both fuzzy and exact-match searches
  • Status: Implemented
  • Details: Previously, the Find Record and Find Many Records searches only did exact-match searches. This meant some searches wouldn’t find any records due to things like extra whitespace, searching for one specific value inside a multi-select field with multiple values selected, and other unexpected results. With a new “Search for Exact Match?” input field, you can choose whether you want to use an exact or fuzzy match for this search.

  • Issue: A spike in the error message: Trigger partner failure: The app returned "Invalid token."
  • Status: Resolved
  • Details: Likely a byproduct of a migration of the Airtable integration’s usage of API keys to OAuth, some connections were getting this error from Airtable but still being marked as a “good” connection on Zapier’s side. These errors are now properly marking the Zapier connection as invalid so that you are appropriately prompted to re-connect.

  • Issue: The New Record and New or Updated Record triggers sometimes encounter a Trigger partner failure: Response payload size exceeded maximum allowed payload size error message.
  • Status: Resolved
  • Details: Depending on the size of your Airtable records, sometimes our systems were unable to handle the size of their data. We’ve implemented a system to programmatically reduce the number of records being checked for new/updated records to keep the records size below our limitations.
