Variables not available in node

I’m cruising along with a workflow with no major hitches until now…

In my workflow I have an Airtable node that creates a record (Create Project). Later in the flow I have another Airtable node (Update Record) where I want to update the record that was created in the first node. I have this working in other nodes along the workflow but, for some reason, the node values are not available in the schema for the Update Record node. They are available in all previous nodes. I’m confused. Can someone help me see what I’m missing here?


Hey @Bradly_Fackrell hope all is well and welcome to the community.

Could you clarify, which values do you expect to have available in the Update Record node? The old value which need to be updated OR the new values that you would like to update the old ones with?

In the Update Record Airtable node I want to get the record ID from the Create Project Airtable node. As you can see in the screenshot, no variables are available. The strange thing is that in all of the nodes before Update Record, all variables are available.

I’ve tried to share the workflow but it’s to big. Is there another way to share it in this group?

You do not see the variables, because all the nodes output is collapsed. You can open any of the nodes up and drag-n-drop the value to the field (id in your case).

The one I want, Create Project, is open in the screenshot. There are no variables available. I’ve figured out a way around this issue.
