# Airtable Extension

## Overview

The Airtable Extension integration is an Airtable Block that is installed from the Airtable Marketplace. Once installed and set up it allows you to simply select a record then generate either a preview of the document or a live version of the document (without a branded footer).

## Airtable Setup

#### Step 1: Install the Extension

Open the Tools dropdown and go to 'Extensions'. In the Extensions pane, click 'Add an extension'. With that done, search for Documint and add it.&#x20;

#### Step 4: Select Template

Once you've successfully connected to Documint you should see a list of your templates. Select the template that you would like to use for the active table. If you don't already have a template that you want to use with the active table then create a new template in Documint, return to Airtable and select the newly created template.

### Documint Setup

Once you've set up the app within Airtable you can start adding variables to your template.
