What it does

This workflow turns a raw CSV upload into a clean Airtable import. It parses the file, validates each row, inserts the rows that pass into your destination Airtable table, and logs each row that fails into a dedicated rejects table with the column, value, and reason it was rejected — so nothing silently disappears.

When to use it

Use it when Airtable is your system of record and you can't afford partial or malformed records polluting it. It keeps the good data flowing while giving you an auditable trail of exactly what got bounced and why.

How it works

  1. 1A new spreadsheet in the Drive folder triggers the run.
  2. 2The file is downloaded and split into individual rows.
  3. 3Each row is validated; rows are partitioned into pass and fail buckets.
  4. 4Passing rows are batch-created in the destination Airtable table.
  5. 5Failing rows are written to an Airtable rejects table with reason fields.
  6. 6A summary count is posted to confirm how many loaded vs. rejected.
