Setup the Make Scenario

Create a new scenario, search for ‘Simplified Webhooks’ and choose the Watch Updated Airtable Records module. If you have not setup a module before, visit the quickstart to go through every step.

​
Receiving Triggers

The module Watch Updated Airtable Records receives a trigger every time there is a new update in the chosen Table and Column(s) of your Airtable Base. The output of the module will always look like this: 
{
        "id": "0abce289-4d03-46ef-80b5-16744c1798a4",
        "event": "update",
        "recordId": "recRPq7LWatCDsBXm",
        "tableId": "tblKn2Ygplrq5Kmbg",
        "baseId": "appatVcKk6xNFwPej",
        "fields": {
            "fldqg4PbziDbWgLok": {
                "name": "Status", //the column name
                "current": "In progress", //the current column value
                "previous": "Todo" //the previous column value
            }
        },
        "meta": {
            "source": "client",
            "occurredAt": "2025-07-14T08:46:25.107Z",
            "user": {
                "id": "usrnwwJUfsBR6EMXl",
                "name": "Test User",
                "email": "test.user@gmail.com"
            }
        }
    }

​
Key components

In every update-trigger you will always find 
{
"event":"create",
"recordId":"",
"tableId":"",
"baseId":"",
"fields":{},
"meta":{}
}
This helps to know what has happened and where in your Airtable Base.

​
Cautious Changes

Keep in mind that the module will trigger whenever there is an update in a specified column. If you change the column’s settings and thereby update multiple records in your table, you will receive individual triggers for each record.
