# Airtable node <a href="#airtable-node" id="airtable-node"></a>

Use the Airtable node to automate work in Airtable, and integrate Airtable with other applications. n8n has built-in support for a wide range of Airtable features, including creating, reading, listing, updating and deleting tables.

On this page, you'll find a list of operations the Airtable node supports and links to more resources.

## Node reference <a href="#node-reference" id="node-reference"></a>

### Get the Record ID <a href="#get-the-record-id" id="get-the-record-id"></a>

To fetch data for a particular record, you need the Record ID. There are two ways to get the Record ID.

### Create a Record ID column in Airtable <a href="#create-a-record-id-column-in-airtable" id="create-a-record-id-column-in-airtable"></a>

To create a `Record ID` column in your table, refer to this [article](https://support.airtable.com/docs/finding-airtable-ids). You can then use this Record ID in your Airtable node.

### Use the List operation <a href="#use-the-list-operation" id="use-the-list-operation"></a>

To get the Record ID of your record, you can use the **List** operation of the Airtable node. This operation will return the Record ID along with the fields. You can then use this Record ID in your Airtable node.

### Filter records when using the List operation <a href="#filter-records-when-using-the-list-operation" id="filter-records-when-using-the-list-operation"></a>

To filter records from your Airtable base, use the **Filter By Formula** option. For example, if you want to return all the users that belong to the organization `n8n`, follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Select 'List' from the **Operation** dropdown list.
2. Enter the base ID and the table name in the **Base ID** and **Table** field, respectively.
3. Click on **Add Option** and select 'Filter By Formula' from the dropdown list.
4. Enter the following formula in the **Filter By Formula** field: `{Organization}='n8n'`.

Similarly, if you want to return all the users that don't belong to the organization `n8n`, use the following formula: `NOT({Organization}='n8n')`.

Refer to the Airtable [documentation](https://support.airtable.com/docs/formula-field-reference) to learn more about the formulas.
