Airtable Requests

What is an Airtable Request?

An Airtable request is a way to integrate your Application with Airtable.

You can retrieve data, create new records, update existing ones, or delete information with Airtable as your backend database.

You can use Airtable to just fetch data without any authentication like in public blogs, or you can use authentication build by Wized so users can create account, sign in, read and write data based on permission setup in Wized configurator.
