Guide
Before you start, you'll need an active Airtable account with at least one base.
Step 1. Add your Airtable account
Click Templates and find the Airtable template.
Click Sync.
Choose an authentication method:
OAuth - click Connect, sign in with your Airtable credentials, and click Grant access.
Personal Access Token - Create a personal access token in Airtable, paste it into the Token field, and click Connect.
Select the Databases you would like to sync and click on the Next button.
Step 2. Configure record links and change field types
Choose the specific Fields from each Database that you wish to synchronize. If you want to modify the default settings, adjust the Type and Fibery Fields accordingly.
Once you're done, Fibery starts syncing your Airtable records. You should see them appear in your workspace within a few moments.
Limitations
Most Airtable field types are supported. Some convert to a different Fibery type; a few aren't supported at all.
