Low-code integration options
Low-code integrations are services or platforms that allow users to build out highly customizable integrations with some development resources recommended.

| The scripting app allows users to write and run JavaScript code that interacts with your Base. Built-in JavaScript libraries (like fetch) allow users to make external API calls to certain services. Can be triggered by a button field or from the apps panel. Note: this code runs client-side and may require a CORS work-around. |

| Our automations allow for automatic actions based on certain Airtable event triggers. One of the actions available is the ability to automatically run a javascript code snippet, similar to the Scripting app. Built-in JavaScript libraries (like fetch) allow users to make external API calls to certain services. Note: this code runs server-side and would not require a CORS work-around. |

| With webhooks, you can be notified of specific events that take place in Airtable. This could allow external systems to take action when a specific event is triggered in Airtable, removing the need to constantly poll the API. Types of events you can monitor include creating, deleting, or updating records in specific tables or bases. |
