Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting AWS DynamoDB and Knack.
Connect your AWS DynamoDB and Knack accounts once, pick an action in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: use AWS DynamoDB's "Batch Get Items" action to perform Knack's "Create a Record" action. AWS DynamoDB has 21 actions (including Batch Get Items, Batch Write Items, and Create Backup); Knack has 16 actions (including Create a Record, Create a Record in a View, and Create a User Session). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — pick an action in either app, then an action in the other, and map the fields between them. [2]
No. AWS DynamoDB-to-Knack automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment AWS DynamoDB (or Knack) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your AWS DynamoDB + Knack automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
