Coda
Databases & spreadsheets
Read and update rows in your Coda docs from your workflows.
Overview
The Softr Coda integration lets you read rows from your Coda tables directly inside your no-code app. Form submissions, member actions, scheduled runs, and other workflow triggers can fetch the right rows from Coda so your app always reflects what your team is tracking.
This fits naturally with the kinds of apps Softr customers build every day: client portals that surface project status from a Coda tracker, internal dashboards that show live operational data to teammates who don't have a Coda seat, and member-facing views powered by the tables your team already maintains in Coda.
Available actions
- List rowsPull rows from a Coda table into a Softr list block, dashboard, or admin view — ideal for showing project status, inventory, or any tracked data to clients and teammates. Pick the doc and table, optionally filter to just the rows you need, and map the columns into your Softr app.
- Get rowLook up a single Coda row by its ID to display its details inside your Softr app or use its values later in the workflow.
- Create or update rowAdd a new row to a Coda table from a form submission or workflow step — or, by setting key columns, update the matching row when one already exists so you never create duplicates.
- Update rowChange the column values of an existing Coda row when something happens in your Softr app, such as a status change or an approval.
- Delete rowRemove a row from a Coda table as part of a workflow — for example when a request is cancelled or a record is archived in your Softr app.
