Airtable API — Base URL, Auth & Endpoints

Airtable's REST API treats every base like a relational database with a spreadsheet interface. Each table has typed fields (text, number, date, select, attachment, linked records, formula, lookup). The API lets you list records with filtering and sorting, create and update multiple records in bulk, manage views and field metadata, trigger automations, and download attachments. Ideal for lightweight data backends, content management, and no-code app data layers.
