Frequently Asked Questions

Didn't find your answer? Please don't hesitate to reach out.

How do I authenticate with Airtable?

The Airtable connector supports authentication via a Personal Access Token (provided directly in open source mode) or via Airbyte Cloud credentials (client ID and client secret) in hosted mode.

Can I use this connector with any AI agent framework?

The connector is compatible with any Python-based AI agent framework including LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Pydantic AI, and custom implementations.

Does this connector support write operations?

No, the Airtable connector currently only supports read operations. Write operations such as creating, updating, or deleting records, creating tables, or modifying table schemas are not supported at this time.

How is this different from the Airbyte data connector?

Agent connectors are specifically designed for AI agents and LLM applications. They provide natural language interfaces, optimized response formats, and seamless integration with agent frameworks, unlike traditional ETL-focused connectors.

Will there be a platform for agent connectors?

The hosted version with secure credential storage through Airbyte Cloud is already available. See the hosted usage section in the documentation for setup instructions.
