Airtable -> Weblow: multiple choice field issue

Hi everybody

I am trying to build a connection between Airtable and Webflow. It shall create a new item in my Webflow CMS collection. Everything is working a part from a multiple choice field. 

I looked at the export at webflow, how the data is shown and adapted it in Airtable, so the two multiple choice fields have exactly the same words in it.

I have tried the following:

  • A multiple choice colum in Airtable with the same wording
  • A single choice column in Airtable with the same wording
  • A single line of text column in Airtable with the same wording

Does anybody know why I cannot add this item. Without the multiple choice field, the zap is working properly.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Tenator 

Good question.

We would need to see screenshots with the data points returned from Webflow to have a better understanding.

After several days trying, I have found the solution by my own. In Webflow the multiple choice field is based on a separate collection in CMS. In this collection the values for the multiple choice field has a item ID.

Either you can transform the Airtable value in the iten ID, or you use a format function in zapier.
