How do I send bulk emails from Airtable?

Filla's Bulk Email Sender connects directly to your Airtable base and sends personalized emails to records in any table. Create a new Bulk Email Sender tool in your Filla workspace, select the Airtable table and email field, then design your email template using the rich-text editor. Insert merge fields using @ mentions to personalize each email with data from the recipient's record. Select a view to scope the send and click Send. Filla processes each record, sends the email, and writes tracking data (opens, clicks, bounces) back to your Airtable fields. The entire workflow stays inside your Airtable data. No separate email platform to manage.

Does Filla track email opens and clicks in Airtable?

Yes. Filla writes email engagement data directly back to your Airtable records after each send. For every email, Filla tracks whether the recipient opened the email, which links they clicked, whether the email bounced, and whether they unsubscribed. This data is written to fields you designate on your table, so you can filter, sort, and report on email engagement using Airtable's native views. No separate analytics dashboard to check. Your Airtable base becomes the single source of truth for email performance.

How does Filla handle email unsubscribes?

Filla manages unsubscribes at the workspace level. Every email sent through the Bulk Email Sender includes an automatic unsubscribe link in the footer, as required by CAN-SPAM. When a recipient clicks unsubscribe, they are added to a workspace-wide unsubscribe list. On future sends, Filla checks this list and automatically skips any address that has previously unsubscribed, regardless of which table or view the send targets. This prevents accidental re-sends and protects your sender reputation without manual list cleanup.

How is Filla different from Base Mailer for Airtable emails?

Base Mailer is a dedicated email tool for Airtable that focuses exclusively on email sending. Filla takes a different approach: the Bulk Email Sender is one tool in a broader Airtable-native platform that also includes forms, 15+ processor tools, and document generation. If your workflow involves collecting data through forms, validating email addresses, generating documents, and then sending emails, Filla handles that entire chain from one workspace. If you only need email sending and nothing else, Base Mailer may be a fine fit. For teams that run more of their operations through Airtable, Filla's platform approach means fewer subscriptions and a more connected workflow.

Can I personalize emails with Airtable field values?

Yes. Both the email body and subject line support merge fields via @ mentions. You can insert any Airtable field value: names, dates, amounts, custom text fields, linked record values, and formula results. For example, a subject line could read "Your invoice for @{Amount} is ready, @{First Name}" and each recipient would see their own values. The rich-text editor also supports formatting around merge fields, so you can bold a name or link a URL field. This level of personalization matches dedicated email marketing tools while keeping all your data in Airtable.
