Airtable (Source)

Overview​

The Airtable source connector lets you authenticate to Airtable using a Personal Access Token (PAT).

Current status: the connector can validate credentials, but data extraction is still in development. You can use this connector today to confirm connectivity/authentication, but it will not yet sync tables/records.

Setup​

Prerequisites​

  • An Airtable account
  • Access to create a Personal Access Token in Airtable

Create a Personal Access Token​

  1. In Airtable, create a Personal Access Token (PAT).
  2. Ensure the token has access to the bases/workspaces you intend to sync (scopes and access are configured in Airtable when creating the token).
  3. Copy the token value.

Authentication​

This connector uses Bearer token authentication with an Airtable Personal Access Token.

During connection testing/login, the connector validates the token by calling:

  • GET https://api.airtable.com/v0/meta/whoami

If the request succeeds, credentials are considered valid.

Configuration​

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
personal_access_tokenstringYesAirtable Personal Access Token (PAT) used to authenticate API requests.

Streams​

No streams are currently available. Catalog discovery returns an empty catalog, and extraction is not yet implemented.

Limitations​

  • Extraction not implemented: runs will fail with an “in development” error when attempting to extract.
  • No catalog discovery: the connector does not yet enumerate bases/tables/fields.
