HTML field extension

Sync HTML from Airtable into a rich text field

TLDR

Add ".html" to a text field to sync HTML into a Webflow rich text field.

Details

Although Airtable's built-in rich text fields work for most use cases, sometimes you need to store raw HTML. For that, we built the HTML field extension feature.

If you add ".html" to the end of a long text field in Airtable, Whalesync will recognize that data as HTML. If you map that field to a rich text field in Webflow, we'll automatically convert your HTML into rich text.

Things to keep in mind

Remember to refresh your fields in Whalesync

You will need to refresh your fields in Whalesync if you want to convert an existing field into an HTML field.

Make sure "enable rich text formatting" is toggled off
