Hey there!

Is there anyway when you update the MS profile photo that you can send that data to Webflow or Airtable?

Best,
Nicholas

    Hey Nicholas Platt, yes you can definitely send the profile pic url to Webflow or Airtable via automation tool like make or zapier.

    I personally would not suggest storing it in Airtable if you plan on using that data to show the picture somewhere else, since Airtable has expiring attachment urls and it might mess up with your integration if it is dependent on such field.

    Nevertheless, if you have a separate file upload form for profile picture or if you are using the profile picture upload component, you can send this information to any platform that you wish to integrate it with.

    Hey AJ Powers, I'm super familiar with Zapier but what is the trigger event? I don't see any url being transferred on the zap or form submit

    Nicholas Platt, where do you have this profile picture field setup?

    Is it during creating an account or updating an account?
    Are you able to see this profile picture field on Memberstack dashboard?

    If yes, then you will have this information in the trigger that your zap has and you could map the respective custom field.

    Hey AJ Powers, It's currently in the update member phase. Are you saying the only way to get the profile picture URL is during the "create profile" phase?

    Theres nothing there on the 'update memberstack" trigger when the profile picture gets added initially
