Airtable Webhooks API Overview

Overview of Webhooks API

The Webhooks API allows developers to be notified in real-time about changes in their base that they care about, from newly created records to a field being updated in an existing record, to a record moving in or out of a view. Read on to learn more about the basics of Webhooks API in Airtable.

• For more information about the Airtable Web API for creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting records, take a look at this documentation. 

• For basic information, a list of related endpoints, and FAQs visit our Webhooks API guide.

• You can access the developer documentation for the Webhooks API here.

  • The Webhooks API is now available to anyone through the API Auth open beta covered in the developer documentation here.

Note

Depending upon the workflow you are trying to build, Webhooks may not always be the best option. You may also want to consider implementing our Run a script automation action.
