Data Fetcher - Connect any API to Airtable without coding

What is Data Fetcher?

Data Fetcher is a no-code Airtable extension that enables users to connect external APIs and data sources directly to their Airtable bases without writing any code. It serves as a bridge between Airtable and the broader ecosystem of web services, allowing users to import, export, and synchronize data from various external sources including REST APIs, GraphQL APIs, and remote files (JSON, CSV, XML, RSS). The tool transforms Airtable from a static database into a dynamic data hub that can automatically pull information from multiple external sources.

Why use Data Fetcher?

• No-Code API Integration: Connect to any REST or GraphQL API using a simple visual interface, making API integration accessible to non-technical users who would otherwise need developer assistance.
• Automated Data Syncs: Schedule automatic data updates as frequently as every 5 minutes, eliminating manual data entry and ensuring information stays current across all connected systems.
• Cost-Effective Alternative: Provides a more affordable solution compared to tools like Zapier for API integrations, offering direct connections without the need for expensive third-party automation platforms.
• Advanced Request Chaining: Create sophisticated multi-step workflows where the results of one API call can be used as inputs for subsequent requests, enabling complex data transformations and business logic.
• Scalable Data Operations: Handle large datasets efficiently, pulling thousands of records at once, limited only by your Airtable plan.
• Flexible Authentication & Pagination: Support for various authentication & pagination methods ensures secure access to protected APIs and enterprise systems.
