So I’m integrating a connection request automation to airtable and all my entries are being meshed into one field (all names are being enetered in one row). I tried a formatter to split the data delimited by commas but still no luck. Here are some screenshots - look at the fields Name area : 

 

Any ideas? Thanks !

If you are trying to handle line items then try these options:

  • Action: Airtable - Create Records (w/ Line Item Support)
    • MAX 10 records

      OR
       
  • Action: Looping - Create Loop from Line Items
    • Map data points into the Looping step, then out from the Looping step
  • Action: Airtable - Create Record

Hey @Troy Tessalone ,

 

Thanks for the link, but what do I loop exactly?

@Zapapmax 

You would loop (aka iterate) on the results returned from Step 1.
