The userId - a non-unique value in the posts collection (a user might have many posts)."body": "quia et suscipit\nsuscipit recusandae consequuntur. "title": "sunt aut facere repellat provident occaecati. The structure of each object record in the array is pretty straightforward: You can usually request a single, specific record and this will be presented as a single object (Example here). Typically a REST API will present multiple instances of the requested resource as an array of objects (like posts above). The array is a series of objects (denoted by a pair of curly brackets containing a series of key/value pairs.).The data returned is an array (square brackets at the start and end).A couple of points to note at this stage: Scroll down the JSONPlaceholder homepage and you’ll see a list of common resources that it provides:Ĭlick on the /posts link and you’ll see a page of post data in JSON format. We’ll start by looking at what JSONPlaceholder can give us. We could connect to a specific app to do this, but we’re going to user JSONPlaceholder, which is a fake API resource, as our API provider, taking the place of the web app we want to integrate with. We’re going to start by getting some data from an external API and using it to create records in Airtable.
#AIRTABLE CHANGE PRIMARY KEY UPDATE#
This is part 1 of a series of posts that will explore how Airtable can interact with REST APIs to get, create, update and delete data in other applications. Most modern web apps have APIs and the most common design pattern for an API is REST (or RESTful). To get Airtable and another app to “talk” we’re going to need to use APIs.
You might want to copy your projects to Asana, send an email using Sendgrid or get the latest stock prices. You don’t need to have anything else in your kitbag to make it work.īut sometimes we want Airtable to work with another app.
A few tables and views, a couple of forms, maybe an automation or two and, of course, some scripts and you’re all set. For many Airtable use cases, Airtable is the only thing you need.
