This n8n workflow automates the process of adding and updating records in Airtable based on manual trigger input. When the workflow is executed, it starts with a manual trigger, allowing the user to initiate the process manually. It then creates a new record in an Airtable table with specific data fields, such as ID and Name, by using a ‘Set’ node to define these values. Next, the workflow retrieves existing records from the same Airtable table filtered by the name ‘n8n’ using the Airtable ‘list’ operation. After fetching the records, it updates the record that matches the filtered criteria with new data, in this case changing the Name to ‘nodemation’. The purpose of this workflow is to streamline data management in Airtable by automating record creation and updates, making it useful for scenarios where data needs to be periodically refreshed or synchronized without manual intervention. This setup is particularly beneficial for teams managing dynamic datasets or needing to maintain up-to-date records across applications efficiently.
