Airtable Integration

The Airtable integration allows you to programmatically manage records in your Airtable bases.

How to get credentials

Airtable requires a Personal Access Token. (Note: Standard API keys are deprecated).

1. Log in to Airtable and go to the Developer Hub.
2. Click Create token.
3. Name your token.
4. Add scopes: data.records:read and data.records:write are usually sufficient for basic operations.
5. Add access: Select the specific bases or workspaces this token can access.
6. Click Create token and copy the string.
7. In Nodes2Cloud, create a new Airtable credential and paste this token.

1. Record Operations

Available Actions

• Record: Create: Creates a new record (row) in a specific table.

Options / Fields

• Base ID: The ID of the Airtable base, starting with app (e.g., appXXXXXX). You can find this in the API documentation for your base or in the URL.
• Table Name / ID: The exact name of the table (e.g., Grid view or Table 1) or its ID starting with tbl.
• Fields (JSON): The data to insert. This should be a simple JSON object where keys are the column names and values are the cell data (e.g., {"Name": "John Doe", "Status": "Active"}).

Common Troubleshooting

• 404 Not Found: Ensure your Base ID and Table Name are exactly correct. Table Names are case-sensitive.
• 401 Unauthorized: Ensure your Personal Access Token includes the base you are trying to access in its "Access" list in the Developer Hub.
• 422 Unprocessable Entity: You are trying to insert data into a field that doesn't exist, or the data format is wrong for that column type (e.g., sending text to a linked record field). Make sure the JSON keys match the exact column names.
