A particular base is very large. I only need table IDs and Names for this call. The JSON returned is HUGE and seems to an issue on my end. How do I get only this limited data with this call?

Note: I am new to Airtable but there is so much data I don't need from a Table. 
 
Thanks,

    Hm, I don't think you can limit the data with that call I'm afraid, the documentation seems to indicate that it'll return all the tables and fields in those tables so you'll need to grab the data you need from the returned JSON yourself

    Thanks Adam.

    For some reason I needed to process some more by stripping out HTML. But, I'm able to handle the JSON now.
