How to connect Airtable to Cloudinary

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

Start setup
  1. Step 01

    Create your DeskFerry account

    Sign up at deskferry.app — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

  2. Step 02

    Authenticate Airtable

    Click "Add Connection" and select Airtable from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Airtable's authorization page. Grant DeskFerry access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

  3. Step 03

    Authenticate Cloudinary

    Same process for Cloudinary. Click "Add Connection," select Cloudinary, and authorize access. Grant DeskFerry access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

  4. Step 04

    Choose your trigger

    Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new item created in airtable or new commit pushed in cloudinary. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

  5. Step 05

    Configure the action

    Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create issue in cloudinary. Map the data fields between Airtable and Cloudinary so the right information lands in the right place.

  6. Step 06

    Test and activate

    Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Airtable and Cloudinary. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — DeskFerry handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
