Our Airtable–Monday.com sync is designed for B2B companies who need to create cross-app workflows and want to cut time on manually moving data between apps.
💡 Airtable is currently only available as a source app. This means you can sync contacts from Airtable to Monday.com, but not the other way around.
Are there alternatives for syncing Airtable and Monday.com?
Zapier and Make can offer a similar solution but come with trade-offs. They don't create a continuous relationship that listens to changes, they are difficult to set up and get expensive as each action counts. Read more.

Why Outfunnel is the best tool to integrate Airtable with Monday.com
Contact sync. Make all contacts or a subset(s) available in Monday.com along with your custom fields and keep them in sync going forward.
Comprehensive field mapping. Sync any default or custom field so you always have the right information available in any app.
Deduplication built-in. Outfunnel creates links based on the email address and we'll automatically cross-reference contacts to prevent duplicate contact entries. If a contact already exists we'll simply link it. If it doesn't we'll create a new contact.
Instant data sync. Outfunnel syncs most data instantly and some within 2 hours.
Monitor sync status. Clear overview of the sync health which includes actionable error messages so you can fix them as they happen.
Historical sync. Sync all of your customer data, no matter when it was created. Outfunnel syncs not only new contacts, but also existing ones.
Transparent pricing. Each contact that's part of the sync only counts once, regardless of how many updates get synced or to how many apps.
Reliable and secure data. Outfunnel uses advanced authentication methods, such as OAuth, and deploys encryption measures to make sure the data is secure in transit.

How to set up a 1-way contact sync from Airtable to Monday.com
1. Choose your apps
Select Airtable and Monday.com, and choose Contact sync as the connection type.
2. Choose sync direction
The sync direction is Airtable → Monday.com (one-way). Airtable is currently only available as a source app.
3. Define which contacts to sync
Define which contacts should be part of the sync.
Airtable contacts: You can choose to sync contacts from a specific table and optionally filter by a view.
If this is your first sync we recommend syncing a limited number of (test) contacts to get a feel for the sync.
🏁 Initial sync
Contacts are linked based on the email address. If an existing contact is not found a new contact is created. If multiple contacts are found with the same email address then the link is made with the oldest contact and no duplicates will be created.
Initial sync actions in Monday.com. Contact gets created in the database.
🔄 Continuous sync
Contact changes. As long as the contact matches the rule any changes to its profile in Airtable will be synced to Monday.com.
When contact stops matching rules all updates will stop. Here's what happens: In Monday.com the contact will be archived.
💡 Other things to keep in mind
Multiple email addresses on a contact. Outfunnel creates a link with the first email address on a contact profile. Other addresses on the profile will be ignored.
Merging contacts. Outfunnel supports merging contacts with the same email. After you've merged a contact, the merged contact will continue to sync as long as the email address still matches the sync rules.
4. Map your fields
Select the fields you'd like the sync to consider. You can sync any default or custom field from Airtable to Monday.com.
Data conflicts
Data conflicts usually happen during the initial sync when a mapped field value is different on both apps. For example, when the name is different for the same contact then Outfunnel will use Airtable as the conflict winner since it is the source of truth in a one-way sync.
💡 Things to keep in mind
Email is a default field that is matched automatically and cannot be changed. This is what Outfunnel uses as the unique identifier to create a link between contacts on two apps.
Read-only fields. Some fields are read-only (ie calculated fields) and cannot be edited which means they can only be synced in one direction.
Adding new fields. Create a new field in the corresponding app. Then head back to Outfunnel and click "refresh fields" to see the new field.
Single/Multiple option fields. If you are mapping single and multiple option fields please pre-create the values in the source and destination app.
5. Activate
Activate the connection. Outfunnel will run the initial sync and start keeping your contacts aligned going forward.
🏁 Initial sync
After activating the connection Outfunnel will run an initial sync to merge your databases and you should see contacts appearing in the sync status page. The initial sync usually takes a few minutes but can take up to a few hours depending on the number of contacts to sync.
The status page also shows errored contacts and provides actionable feedback on how to fix this.
🔄 Continuous sync
After the initial sync completes Outfunnel starts running a continuous sync where some data syncs instantly and some data is checked at a regular interval. Read more about how often data syncs.
