Airtable connector

The Airtable REST API connector is used for data extracted from an Airtable base, using their REST API.

Creation

1. Find your Airtable API URL from :

• your workspace : Help > API documentation > [your base] > Authentication
• your base : Choose your table then go in Help > API documentation > Authentication

2. Check the show API key checkbox and copy the EXAMPLE USING QUERY PARAMETER without the curl, this is your API URL. (e.g. https://api.airtable.com/v0/base_id/table_name?api_key=api_key)
3. Enter the URL to the layer in the Enter a URL area, when creating a new dataset.
4. Press Enter, or click the + button.

Note

In the example https://api.airtable.com/v0/base_id/table_name?api_key=api_key the base_id field stands for the ID of your Airtable database. The table_name field stands for the name of the table to import from the database in unicode.

Configuration

Name	Description	Default Value
Base ID	ID of your Airtable database	By default, the textbox is extracted from the base_id field of the URL.
Table Name	Name of the table to import from the database	By default, the textbox is extracted from the table_name field of the URL.
API key	Airtable account API key	By default, the textbox is extracted from the api_key field of the URL.

Note

The Airtable REST API is limited to 5 requests per second per base. Try not to schedule updates of tables from the same base all at once.
