Airtable

Read and write Airtable bases, table schemas, fields, records (create, update, upsert) and record comments.

Keep Airtable operational bases in sync with CRM, ERP and finance systems without hand-built scripts.

Build a flow with Airtable Provider API documentation

Data types

Validation status

Implemented · fixture tested.

Implementation is checked against provider-shaped fixtures for every action, authentication failures, rate limits, pagination and duplicate safety. Provider sandbox and authorised account validation are recorded separately when credential-backed runs are completed.

Authentication

Airtable personal access token

Plans and access

All Airtable plans; API call allowances depend on the workspace plan. Personal access tokens are limited to the scopes and bases chosen when created.

Test environment

Use a free workspace and a copy of a production base.

Rate limits

5 requests per second per base and 50 per second per token; HTTP 429 then a 30-second wait.

Provider events

Airtable webhooks (base change notifications with payload polling). Nexra event triggers are not yet available; flows run on demand or on a schedule.

Before you build a flow

Each write handles one record; batches of up to 10 records per request are not exposed.
Record creation has no idempotency key; use Upsert with merge fields for repeat-safe writes.
Attachments are written as URL objects in field values; file uploads are not implemented.
Record, table and field deletes are not implemented.
Incremental reads use LAST_MODIFIED_TIME() in filterByFormula, which ignores computed-field changes.
