Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  1. A trained Browse AI robot that's ready to extract data

  2. An Airtable account with access to create and modify bases

  3. Completed at least one successful test run of your robot

Setting up the integration

Open the integrations tab

Navigate to your dashboard, select your robot, and click the "Integrate" tab at the top of the screen.


Enable the Airtable integration

Connect and enable syncing to to Airtable by clicking the Airtable tile, then select "Enable Syncing to Airtable."

Authorize your account

Choose "Authorize New Account" under the "Choose Airtable Account" section and follow the prompts to connect your Airtable account.

If you've connected Airtable before, you can select an existing account.

Configure your sync

  1. Select your target Airtable base

  2. Map your robot's data fields to Airtable columns

  3. Review and activate the integration

Test the connection and run your task

Navigate to the "Run Task" tab and initiate your designated task.

During this step, ensure that the extracted texts are correctly displayed in your Airtable, creating a new tab for your data.

Set up an automated continuous sync

With the setup complete, when you run your task, or it executes a monitoring check, the newly captured data will be automatically update to your Airtable.

This automated process ensures that your data remains up-to-date and consistently organized.

Important technical details

Your Airtable integration needs specific settings to work properly:

  • Browse AI syncs data to multiline text fields, which have a 100,000-character limit. Data exceeding this limit won't sync successfully.

  • Keep all synced fields as multiline text type in Airtable. Changing field types (like switching from text to currency) will break the sync.

Troubleshooting

If your data isn't syncing:

  • Verify that your robot is extracting data successfully

  • Check that your Airtable field types haven't been modified

  • Ensure your data doesn't exceed the character limit

  • Confirm you have proper permissions in your Airtable base
