Airtable

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.

Category: Productivity, Data & Analytics. Exposes 7 action(s).

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:

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

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

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 below links to a reference file with its purpose and exact commands. Read the linked file, then fetch the live schema with oo connector schema before constructing --data.

Available actions

  • create_records — Create one or more Airtable records in a table.
  • delete_records — Delete one or more Airtable records by record ID.
  • 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 personal access token.
  • list_records — List Airtable records from a table with optional fields, sorting, view filters, formula filters, and pagination.
  • update_records — Update one or more existing Airtable records by record ID.

Safety

  • Read actions (get / list / search) are safe to run directly.
  • Create, update, send, or post actions change Airtable state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
  • Delete or remove actions are destructive — 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):

    curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
    
    irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
    
  • Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

    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: API key) at:

    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.
