Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Airtable Automations with August Ads?
Yes. Our integration works with Airtable Automations. You can trigger video generation when records match certain conditions, send notifications based on production events, and update records automatically.
How do video files get into Airtable?
Completed videos can be added as attachments to Airtable records, or as links to hosted files. Attachments include thumbnail previews; links are lighter weight for large libraries.
Can I build approval workflows in Airtable?
Yes. Use Airtable's native features - checkbox fields, single select for approval status, linked records to approvers - combined with Automations to build multi-stage approval processes.
Is there a record limit for the integration?
The integration works within Airtable's plan limits. For bases with thousands of video records, we recommend using link attachments instead of file attachments to manage storage.
Can I import existing August Ads videos into Airtable?
Yes. You can sync your existing August Ads library to Airtable, creating records for all historical videos. This is useful for building a retroactive asset library.
