Airtable OAuth

📝 TL;DR

We added support for Airtable OAuth. If you're creating a new base, you can now use Airtable permissions rather than an API key.

If you have an existing Whalesync base using Airtable, please reauthorize it on the edit base page. Thank you!

⚙️ Airtable OAuth

Airtable enabled OAuth earlier this year for more targeted permissions. We've now switched over to their new authorization system so you don't have to use your Airtable API Key to use Whalesync.

If you have an existing Whalesync base using Airtable, please reauthorize it on the edit base page. Thank you!


🔽 Field Mapping Untoggled

Previously, updating field mappings could be unwieldy if you had dozens of tables. Now all tables default to 'toggle closed' so you can quickly update just the fields you want.

🎞️ Wistia video support for Notion Page Sync

Notion page sync previously supported videos from YouTube and Vimeo. Now it also includes support for Wistia!


🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Adding an Airtable base sharing link password no longer causes issues

Notion Page Sync!

📝 TL;DR

Sync Notion page content to Webflow and other apps!


✏️ Write in Notion, see it instantly on your site

You can now sync headings, images, videos, & more from Notion pages out to other apps. Imagine writing an entire blog post entirely in Notion and it instantly appears on your Webflow site. Even crazier, Notion AI will write entire blog posts that sync instantly as well  🤯.

This is one of the most powerful features we've ever built. We hope you enjoy!

For a list of supported blocks (hint - we support almost all of them) check out our docs.

Whalesync Memberships Sync (to GA)


📝 TL;DR

Webflow Memberships Sync is now available to everyone! (out of Beta)


✏️ Webflow Memberships Sync

About Webflow Memberships Sync

With our Webflow Memberships Sync, you can now manage all of your users from within apps like Airtable or Notion! This makes it easy to:

  • Create BI dashboards on your users (in Airtable)
  • Bulk update users
  • Connect your users to other information (e.g. billing info)

‍

Getting Set Up

Webflow Memberships sync is available on all Webflow plans. To sync Webflow users, simply choose "User accounts" from the Whalesync table mapping page:

‍

If you want to sync Webflow users with Airtable, you can also copy our free User Accounts Airtable template here.


Supported Fields

We currently support the following fields for Webflow Memberships:

Since Webflow Memberships is still a beta Webflow feature, it has slightly more limited API support. As Webflow moves the feature out of beta, we'll likely be able to add support for more fields.

‍

Learn More

Check out our docs for more info on the new feature.

‍

Looking for Memberstack?

While Webflow Memberships is an amazing feature, some Webflow builders opt for Memberstack to handle their more advanced membership needs.

Good news is we're working on a Memberstack connector too! If interested in getting early access to our Memberstack connector shoot an email to: hello@whalesync.com.

Whalesync file hosting

📝 TL;DR

Whalesync file hosting is now live for all new bases and is available opt-in for any existing bases.


📁 Whalesync File Hosting

What is Whalesync file hosting?
  • Airtable announced a change that they would expire links after a certain period of time starting February 9th
  • This means that if you're syncing Airtable attachments to a destination that also doesn't host files (e.g. Bubble) those attachments will no longer appear
  • To solve this, Whalesync will now host files and ensure they don't expire
Who might want to opt-in
  • If you are syncing Airtable attachment fields to Bubble or Notion
How to opt-in
  • Send an email to hello@whalesync.com

Mapping Improvement and Search Logs (45)

📝 TL;DR

We updated the field mapping page to help avoid issues and you can now filter logs/issues by record ID.

🗺️ Mapping improvements 

We made a few improvements to the field mapping page to make it easier to use.

  • Shows results of automapping in a blue box
  • Displays number of fields mapped for each table
  • Shows warnings on certain field mappings

🔍 Search logs / issues

You can now filter logs and issues by record ID to more easily find the log / issue you need.

➕ Request new connectors 

🔄 HTML field syncing

Not a new feature, but one that is a bit hidden. You can sync HTML with Rich Text fields by adding ".html" to the end of a field name.

See docs

➡️ What’s Next

  • Control the draft/publish status of a Webflow item from a field in other apps like Airtable

Issue Emails

📧 Issue Emails

TLDR

The Issues page in Whalesync is where you can any error an app has thrown that is preventing syncing. Whalesync will now send an email to alert you of certain new issues!


Why we built this feature

Issues is one Whalesync's most popular features, giving visibility into sync problems. That being said, previously you only saw sync issues if you checked the Issues page. Many of you told us that you'd like to be notified when new sync issues occur so you can fix the issue more quickly.


How it works

  • Whenever a new issue occurs, Whalesync will check if we've sent you an email in the last 24 hours
  • If we haven't sent you an email in the last 24 hours, you will receive an issue email with a count of your total issues
  • If we have sent you an email, we will not send you another one


What's next

We expect to invest into issue emails and add more features over time. We'd love to hear your feedback on v1!

Bubble GA + Webflow App Store

📝 TL;DR

We opened up the Bubble to everyone! We also had an awesome time at Webflow Conf meeting everyone and participating in the launch of their app store. And lots of bug fixes.


🚀 Bubble GA Launch

Bubble is now officially in GA and available to users on all plans! You can read more about the launch here.

🛒  Webflow App Store

We had to keep this one under wraps for a while, but were thrilled to finally share that we were one of fourteen launch partners for Webflow's new app store! You can check out our new app detail page here and read more about the launch here.

🤝 Whalesync Partner Program

We opened up a partner program for the amazing agencies using Whalesync to make their clients' lives easier! This includes launching our experts page where you can easily find agencies/freelancers in the program :).

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Lift the two-page limit on sync logs
  • Ensure records with reference fields can still be deleted from Webflow
  • Fix low-fidelity of base sharing link instructions
  • Show an error if Webflow is missing a single select field
  • Fix the issue where clicking outside the auth dialog gets you stuck
  • Fix resubscribe flow
  • Explain why "add a field" is disabled in the UI if disabled
  • Fix situation where clicking back in setup flow gets you stuck
