One question we get frequently from Webflow users is:

“How do I sync Airtable multi-select fields with Webflow?”


The tricky answer is that Webflow doesn’t have a concept of “multi-select” the way that Airtable does. For this reason, it’s actually impossible to sync Airtable multi-selects with Webflow. BUT… you can sync Airtable linked record fields with Webflow.


In this quick tutorial, we’ll show you how to convert an Airtable multi-select into an Airtable linked record so you can sync it with Webflow.

How to sync Airtable multi-selects (by converting to linked records)

1. Add a new field


2. Add a linked record field in Airtable that is linked to your other table


3. Copy over the records from your multi-select field to your multi-reference field


4. In Webflow, create your main collection

5. Also make sure you create a new collection to reference from


6. Go to your main collection’s settings


7. Add a new multi-reference field


8. Choose the Tags table as the linked collection


9. Go to Whalesync, create a new sync and authorize Airtable and Webflow


10. Map your tables and fields


11. Map your multi-reference fields


12. Map the other table you have in order to map your multi-reference field

13. Start your sync!
