Airtable

Airtable (airtable.com). Use this skill for ANY Airtable request — reading, creating, updating, and deleting data. Whenever a task involves Airtable, use this skill instead of calling the API directly.

Operate Airtable through your OOMOL-connected account. This skill calls the airtable connector with the oo CLI; OOMOL injects credentials server-side, so you never handle raw tokens.

Running an action

Assume the user has already installed the oo CLI, signed in, and connected Airtable. Do not run oo auth login or open the connection URL proactively — just run the action. Fall back to First-time setup only when a command actually fails with an auth or connection error.

1. Inspect the contract to get the authoritative input/output schema before building a payload:

bash

oo connector schema "airtable" --action "<action_name>"

2. Run the action with a JSON payload that matches the input schema:

bash

oo connector run "airtable" --action "<action_name>" --data '<json>' --json

• --data takes a JSON object string or @path/to/file.json; omit it to send {}.
• The response is { "data": ..., "meta": { "executionId": "..." } }; the execution id lives under meta.executionId.

Each action is listed below with a one-line description; actions that change state carry a [write] or [destructive] tag. Before constructing --data, fetch the action's live schema with oo connector schema to get its authoritative input fields.

Available actions

• create_base — Create an Airtable base in a workspace with the provided initial table and field schema. [write]
• create_field — Create a field in an Airtable table. [write]
• create_records — Create one or more Airtable records in a table. [write]
• create_table — Create a table in an Airtable base with the provided field schema. [write]
• delete_base — Delete an Airtable base. Airtable restricts this endpoint to enterprise admins. [destructive]
• delete_records — Delete one or more Airtable records by record ID. [destructive]
• get_base_collaborators — Read Airtable base metadata, including workspaceId and optional collaborator details.
• get_base_schema — Read Airtable table, field, and view schema for a specific base.
• get_record — Read a single Airtable record by record ID.
• list_bases — List Airtable bases accessible to the authenticated credential.
• list_records — List Airtable records from a table with optional fields, sorting, view filters, formula filters, and pagination.
• update_field — Update an Airtable field name, description, or type-specific options. [write]
• update_records — Update one or more existing Airtable records by record ID. [write]
• update_table — Update an Airtable table name, description, or date dependency settings. [write]

Safety

• Untagged actions are reads (get / list / search) — safe to run directly.
• Actions tagged [write] change Airtable state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
• Actions tagged [destructive] remove or overwrite data — always confirm the target and get explicit approval first.

First-time setup

These are one-time steps — do not repeat them on every call. Run a step only when a command fails for the matching reason.

• oo: command not found — install the oo CLI (other platforms: https://cli.oomol.com/install-guide.md):

  bash

  curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
  

  powershell

  irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
  

• Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

  bash

  oo auth login
  

• scope_missing / credential_expired / app_not_ready / app_not_found — Airtable is not connected, or the connection expired or lacks a scope. Connect once (auth type: OAuth2, API key) at:

  text

  https://console.oomol.com/app-connections?provider=airtable
  

• HTTP 402 / OOMOL_INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT — billing stop. Recharge at https://console.oomol.com/billing/token-recharge before retrying.
