We are excited to announce that the Airtable import feature is now live within Softr Databases. This makes it incredibly easy to bring your existing data into our native database solution.
You can now migrate your tables, fields, and records directly from Airtable with just a few clicks. This ensures that your data structure remains intact while you transition to a more integrated experience.

While Softr integrates with 17+ external data sources, Softr Databases is the powerful, native way to manage data directly within Softr for maximum performance.

When you start the import process, Softr will map your Airtable field types to the corresponding types within Softr Databases. This includes text fields, attachments, and even linked records to maintain your relational data.
Once your data is imported, you can start building your application layers on top of it immediately. This eliminates the need to manually recreate complex schemas that you have already built elsewhere.

Note from Softr: Another great option is to simply open the AI co-builder and prompt for what you want. It builds complete app structures and database schemas instantly while letting you tweak things later.

After the import is complete, you can manage all your user permissions and visibility rules as usual. The native integration ensures that your app remains fast and responsive for all your end users.
If you have been using external automation tools to sync data, you might find this native approach much simpler. It reduces the number of moving parts in your technical stack.

Note from Softr: You can also use Softr Workflows to keep your logic as close to the design as possible, helping to consolidate tools and reduce reliance on third-party automation platforms.
