Integrate Airtable with PostgreSQL

Airtable is a cloud-based database application for organizing, storing, and sharing data. It provides a spreadsheet-like interface for entering and editing records and also a SQL-like query language for retrieving data. Each table in an Airtable base has its own relational schema, and can be used as the source of a PostgreSQL view. Airtable is a great top for storing and managing large amounts of data in a structured format. It can handle huge amounts of data and is easy to access and update.

Integration of Airtable and PostgreSQL

Airtable, a popular spreadsheet app with cplaboration features, and PostgreSQL, the most advanced open source database, are now even more powerful together. A great way to integrate Airtable with PostgreSQL is to use an Airtable base as the source for a PostgreSQL view. This enables you to easily create reports using standard PostgreSQL formulas (expressions. and functions, without having to write any custom queries or code. You can also:

Create a data warehouse that spans multiple related tables across multiple bases in the same account, as well as in other accounts.

Link related tables such that changes in one table affect the other automatically. For example, if you change the price of an item in one table that's linked to another table containing inventory information, the amount of inventory will automatically be updated.

Build dashboards by combining multiple views that share the same underlying PostgreSQL table. For example, you could combine sales, marketing and customer relationship management data on a single dashboard.

Create databases that can be accessed by multiple users simultaneously. All changes to the database are automatically reflected in all views created from the database, so multiple users can work in parallel. And if you want to make changes yourself to the underlying tables in your database, you can do so directly in Airtable—no need to dig into the underlying PostgreSQL database.

Benefits of Integration of Airtable and PostgreSQL

The integration gives you two major benefits:

• Making it very easy to create reports:

Using a view as the source for your report lets you take advantage of standard PostgreSQL functionality like functions, subqueries and joins—but without writing any SQL code. Since you're using Postgres as your back-end store instead of building the reports out of raw data in Airtable, you save time both on data entry and on maintenance. You can also link related tables together so that changes in one table automatically update related tables. For example, if you change the price of an item in one table linked to another table containing inventory information, the amount of inventory will automatically be updated. You might find this feature especially useful if you're creating a data warehouse that spans multiple related tables across multiple bases in the same account, as well as in other accounts.
