How do you use the API to list records with field IDs instead of names?

Did you ever find a solution to this anywhere else?

Hi, is there an official answer for this ? The default behaviour of the API is pretty much a bomb waiting to explode when you have more than, well... one, user.

So I finally found a solution but forgot to update my question here. I looked through the query parameters for the List Records API endpoint and found the boolean flag `returnFieldsByFieldId`. This has worked perfectly for me! As with the default behavior of the API though, you'll still have problems if another user happens to delete a field from the table. 

You can use this API endpoint to gather tables with field names/ids in a given base, if it helps as well: https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/get-base-schema

Hi karansuraj, thanks ! This is super helpful. I did not realize these docs had so much more information than the auto-generated ones. 

Yeah I'm not happy about the fragmentation of the documentation, especially because I use the NodeJS API and the documentation isn't consistent between the auto-generated docs for the individual bases and these pages I shared, but generally I would use these pages more if you wanna see every option available, even if you're not making a standard web REST request. I DID notice that their NodeJS and python APIs don't always have all of the features the main API reference mentions, though.
