Export Airtable data to files on disk

airtable-export

Export Airtable data to files on disk

Installation

Install this tool using pip:

$ pip install airtable-export

Usage

You will need to know the following information:

• Your Airtable base ID - this is a string starting with app...
• Your Airtable API key - this is a string starting with key...
• The names of each of the tables that you wish to export

You can export all of your data to a folder called export/ by running the following:

airtable-export export base_id table1 table2 --key=key

This example would create two files: export/table1.yml and export/table2.yml.

Rather than passing the API key using the --key option you can set it as an environment variable called AIRTABLE_KEY.
