Airtable Overview#

Airtable (OAuth) API on Pipedream allows you to manipulate and leverage your Airtable data in a myriad of powerful ways. Sync data between Airtable and other apps, trigger workflows on updates, or process bulk data operations asynchronously. By using Airtable's structured databases with Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft custom automation solutions, integrate with other services seamlessly, and streamline complex data processes.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";

  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Airtable	`airtable`	`app`	This component uses the Airtable app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Base	`baseId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Table	`tableId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Airtable uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Airtable account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Airtable and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Airtable API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

data.records:readdata.records:writedata.recordComments:readdata.recordComments:writeschema.bases:readschema.bases:writewebhook:manageuser.email:read

Affinda Overview#

The Affinda API offers a suite of powerful tools for document analysis and extraction, enabling you to automate the processing of resumes, invoices, bank statements, and other documents. By parsing detailed information from documents, Affinda can transform unstructured data into structured, actionable insights. With Pipedream, you can integrate Affinda's capabilities into serverless workflows, connecting to hundreds of apps to automate tasks like candidate screening, financial data aggregation, or content management.
