API wrapper for Airtable written in Python

airtable-python

airtable-python is an API wrapper for Airtable, written in Python

• Use this library if you are interested in Oauth authentication and webhook notifications.

Installing

pip install airtable-python

Usage

from airtable.client import Client
client = Client(client_id, client_secret, redirect_uri, code_verifier)

Note: If you already have an access token, you can initiate Client without any parameters and directly set token with the access token you have as a dictionary client.set_token({"access_token": token})

Get access_token

To get the access token using Oauth2 follow the next steps. Check https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/oauth-reference for more info:

1. Get authorization URL to receive code

url = client.authorization_url(state)

2. Get access token using code

token = client.token_creation(code)

3. Set access token

client.set_token(access_token)

If your access token expired, you can get a new one using refresh_token:

response = client.refresh_access_token(refresh_token)

And then set access token again...

Get current user

user = client.get_current_user()

List Bases

bases = client.list_bases()

List Tables

tables = client.list_base_tables(baseId)

List records

records = client.list_records(
    baseId, 
    tableId, 
    pageSize=None, 
    maxRecords=None, 
    filter_field=None, 
    filter_value=None, 
    sort_field=None, 
    sort_direction=None
)
# baseId and tableId are required
# sort_direction options are 'desc' or 'asc'

Create Records

records = [
    {
        "fields": {
          "Projects": "Project from python",
          "Status": "In progress",
          "Complete?": False
        }
    },
]
records = client.create_records(baseId, tableId, records)

Update Record

data = {
    "Status": "Complete",
    "Complete?": True
}
record = client.update_record(baseId, tableId, recordId, data)

Update Multiple Records

records = [
    {
        "id": "recB4UscNECOHnT7y",
        "fields": {
            "Number": 10000,
        },
    },
    {
        "id": "recFkktx671jlvyj8",
        "fields": {
            "Number": 20000,
        },
    },
]
updated_records = client.update_record(baseId, tableId, records)

List Collaborators (needs enterprise scopes access)

collabs = client.list_collaborators(baseId)
