Airtable connector

Anthony Pépin Updated by Anthony Pépin

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

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.

Creation

Make sure you are the owner of the Airtable table. It is mandatory to be able to connect the table to Opendatasoft.

    • If you want to create a dataset, click Catalog > Datasets and click the New dataset button.
    • If you want to add a source to an existing dataset, click Catalog > Datasets and select the desired dataset. Then, click Add a source.
  2. In the wizard that opens, select Airtable under the Configure a remote service section.
  3. Configure your Airtable connection:
