To update an Airtable row without creating a duplicate contact, you can use our "Update Record with Airtable" action. This action allows you to modify an existing record in your Airtable base without creating a new one.
Here's how to do it:
1. Use the "Update Record with Airtable" action in Clay.
2. Provide the Base ID for the Airtable base you want to update.
3. Specify the Record ID of the row you want to modify.
4. Enter the fields and values you want to update.
This action supports partial updates, so you can change specific fields without altering the entire record. By using this method, you'll avoid creating new contacts or duplicates while updating your existing Airtable data.
No, the "Update Record with Airtable" action doesn't automatically run when a record is updated in Airtable. It's an action you need to trigger manually within Clay to update an Airtable record. This action allows you to modify specific fields in an existing Airtable record using its unique ID. If you need automatic updates, you might want to explore other integration options or ask about setting up automated workflows in Clay.
