Overview

The Airtable input cell allows you to fetch data from your Airtable bases and use it in your workflows and dashboards. Airtable views are automatically stored at Python DataFrames for easy use with AI and Python or SQL.

Configuration

Creating an Airtable access token

In Airtable, create a new API access token from your Builder Hub.

Make sure this token as data.records:read access so that it can read your data from Airtable.

Ingesting Airtable views into Fabi.ai

Once you have your Airtable access token:

  1. In a Smartbook, create a new Airtable cell
  2. Copy/paste the view URL from Airtable in the View URL input (eg. “https://airtable.com/app1lxz7”)
  3. Add you access token to the Personal Access Token input (Important: We strongly recommend using our Secret Manager for better security)

As with other input cells, Fabi.ai automatically saves your data as a Python DataFrame to make it ready to use for the AI or in any other cell.
