Understanding Airtable tables

Tables are the next level down from bases in Airtable's organizational structure, containing a shared type of information across all records in that table. Tables in Airtable hold information about one type of item — for example, products, projects, tasks, campaigns. Each base needs at least one table. Individual tables appear as their own tabs in a base. 

Because Airtable is a relational database, you can connect information from different tables across a base using features like linked records, lookups, rollups, Airtable Automations, and more.
