Airtable

About

Airtable is a hosted spreadsheet-database for teams, with a REST API to read and write records, tables and fields. It suits internal tools and light back offices. The API allows 5 requests per second per base, and the Free plan caps usage at 1,000 API calls a month.

What you can do with it

• Read, create and update records in Airtable bases from your app
• Get webhook notifications when data in a base changes
• Let an AI agent query bases and build tables through the MCP server

Get started

1. Create a personal access token with the data.records:read scope
2. Give the token access to your base
3. Copy the base ID and a table name or ID

Example

curl "https://api.airtable.com/v0/$AIRTABLE_BASE_ID/Tasks?maxRecords=10" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIRTABLE_TOKEN"
