If you are disseminating operational information through your LINE Official Account, as the number of registered users increases, the number of message recipients will also grow, leading to an increased burden in managing user information and sending notifications for events. By utilizing Yoom to integrate Airtable with your LINE Official Account, you can automatically send messages to specific users based on Airtable's record information. By directly reflecting the registered data from Airtable, you can eliminate input errors of ID information and prevent issues such as incorrect information dissemination. This article explains how to set up an automated flow to send messages from Airtable to your LINE Official Account and the benefits of implementing it. By incorporating it into your operations, you can achieve stable data management and simplify information dissemination tasks, so please take a look.

Benefits and Examples of Integrating Airtable with LINE Official Account
1. Reduction of Manual Work in Message Sending
By automatically sending messages from your LINE Official Account based on the data managed in Airtable, you can reduce manual operations during message sending. For example, if you register event participant information in Airtable, you can automatically send confirmation messages to participants from your LINE Official Account as the event date approaches. This ensures that information is notified at specific times, preventing manual handling errors or delays.
2. Speeding Up Inquiry Responses
By incorporating this automated flow, you can quickly send follow-up messages from your LINE Official Account to the appropriate users based on their profile content or inquiries registered in Airtable. For instance, by templating responses to questions about a campaign, you can quickly auto-reply with the relevant content when an inquiry is received, reducing customer wait times. This can help improve customer satisfaction by minimizing issues such as delayed responses.
3. Achieving an Accurate Information Distribution Flow
By automating the message sending process, you can accurately send messages tailored to the situation to the target audience. As a specific example, by utilizing Airtable data to create an emergency contact list for participants, you can automatically send a message about schedule changes to the target audience via your LINE Official Account in case of bad weather on the day of the event. This allows for the simultaneous transmission of information to all participants, eliminating the risk of missing important information and enabling quick decision-making and appropriate follow-up actions by the organizers.
Now, let's create a flow bot using the "Send Messages from Airtable to LINE Official Account" template.
[What is Yoom]
How to Send Messages from Airtable to LINE Official Account
This can be achieved by using a Chrome extension as a trigger to receive record information from Airtable via Airtable's API and send any desired information from Airtable through the LINE Official Account using its API. Generally, programming knowledge is required to achieve this, but with the no-code tool Yoom, it can be easily accomplished without programming knowledge.
The steps to complete the flow are as follows.

Until now, as customer support, we have made efforts to resolve users' questions and concerns.
I was moved to learn that by using Yoom, tasks that are becoming increasingly complicated on a daily basis will progress quickly!
From now on, we will continue to distribute content with easy-to-understand content so that people who aim to improve work efficiency can use the service smoothly.
Conventional RPA can only automate simple repetitive tasks, and the setup process was very complicated. With “hyperautomation,” which combines various technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR, it is possible to automate many tasks that could not be realized until now more easily than before.
Most tools simply connect one app to another, leaving the complex tasks to you. Yoom goes much further: From document creation and browser automation to OCR and generative AI, Yoom handles it all seamlessly in one platform.
Why settle for basic integrations? Streamline your entire workflow with Yoom’s powerful hyperautomation.
