URLs not syncing correctly without "https"

[DL1]

Hi, I’m seeing that if URLs in Airtable do not have “https://” at the beginning, they do not work properly when synced to Webflow. Instead of linking to the correct address, they link to my own Webflow site/their site and will not work. For example: https://mywebsite.webflow.io/google.com
This issue happens regardless of if the url has “www.” or not.

I’m receiving all of my data from Airtable forms which do validate links but cannot require the “https://”
Users are inputting several urls for each entry so it’d be inconvenient to go through every single one and add the https.

Is there any solution or work around for this issue?

Hi @DL1, I suggest you use Airtable’s Formula Field to run a check and adds “https://” if it doesn’t exist, and then, link that Formula Field in CMS Bridge.

You can try using an Airtable formula field to automatically add “https://” to URLs if they don’t already have it. A formula like IF(LEFT(URL, 4) != “http”, “https://” & URL, URL) should help standardize the links before syncing to Webflow. Let me know if you need help setting it up!
