Dear [user],
We are writing to you because you have used the Legacy Airtable API with an API key in the past six months.
Earlier this year, Airtable [introduced new API authentication methods](Earlier this year, we introduced new API authentication methods and announced that API keys will be deprecated on February 1, 2024. This email serves as a reminder of this change. "Earlier this year, we introduced new API authentication methods and announced that API keys will be deprecated on February 1, 2024. This email serves as a reminder of this change.") and announced that API keys will be deprecated on February 1, 2024. This email serves as a reminder of this change.
Existing Airtable API keys (and any integrations that use them) will continue to work until February 1, 2024. However, to maintain uninterrupted access to the Airtable API, you will need to switch to the new authentication methods before that date.
We recommend using the Airtable 2.0 integration with OAuth for authentication. This new integration module also supports the Personal Access Tokens. For this, you have to reconfigure the integration settings from scratch.
If you still prefer to use the Legacy Airtable integration, you can continue doing so by using Personal Access Tokens to authenticate your API requests.
For more information about this change, please refer to our User Guide.
Airtable announcement

2023-01-18
We're excited to announce the graduation of our announced features from last November's beta launch!
New authentication methods, now in general availability
For general background, please see those prior notes
Errata: User ID & Scopes is only available for the new authentication methods, now fixed
New: Sync CSV data endpoint
Sync CSV data endpoint is a new sync integration that accepts CSV-formatted data through our Web API.
We hope this makes it easier to plug in data sources that Airtable does not yet natively support!
API Key deprecation period start
With the graduation of personal access tokens and OAuth integrations, we're also starting the deprecation period for the previous method of user API keys.
We'll turn off API key access entirely after February 1, 2024. In the coming weeks, we'll share intermediate deprecation milestones, and more actionable details.
API Key-based webhook deprecation
As a reminder, the webhooks now in general availability require one of the new authentication methods. They have expiry times and require refreshes to continue to function.
As part of the user API key deprecation, we'll also phase out of previous features that relied on those keys. For example, enterprise users had access to create webhooks using API keys.
We'll phase out the ability for user API keys to create new webhooks; we'll share deprecation milestones and more details in the coming weeks
After February 1, 2024, any existing API key-created webhooks will also expire. These may be refreshed using the new authentication methods
This is the optional step that should be removed:
