There could be a few reasons why href attributes in n8n's Airtable to Webflow integration are being stripped and replaced with "#" values. Here are a few possible causes:

  1. Incorrect Mapping: One possibility is that the mapping between n8n and Webflow is not set up correctly. When setting up the integration, it is important to ensure that the respective fields in n8n and Webflow are properly connected. Make sure that the field in Airtable containing the href data is correctly connected to the field in Webflow where the href attribute should be populated.

  2. Incorrect Formatting: Another reason could be incorrect formatting of the Airtable data. Verify that the href values in the Airtable records are properly formatted URLs. Make sure they include the complete URL, including the protocol (e.g., "https://"), and do not contain any extra characters or spaces.

  3. Template or Code Issue: It is also possible that there is an issue with the template or code being used in the Webflow integration. Check the settings and code used in the Webflow integration to make sure there are no errors or conflicts that could be causing the href attributes to be stripped or replaced.

  4. Data Type Mismatch: If the integration is using a data type that is not compatible between n8n and Webflow, it could result in the href attributes being replaced with "#" values. Ensure that the data types of the fields being mapped between Airtable and Webflow are consistent and compatible.

To troubleshoot and resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

  • Double-check the mapping between n8n and Webflow to ensure it is set up correctly.
  • Verify the formatting of the Airtable data to ensure the href values are properly formatted URLs.
  • Review and update the template or code being used in the Webflow integration.
  • Check for any data type mismatches that could be causing the issue.

By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue causing the href attributes to be stripped and replaced with "#" values in n8n's Airtable to Webflow integration.
