Development & APIs

Just a heads up: When requesting data via the API, if you specify a view that doesn’t exist, then the current version of the API will return a NULL result (instead of throwing an error). I ran into this by accident. I was using a view name that had a space in it, and the name wasn’t URL-encoded. For example, “Main View” instead of “Main+View.” ~ Tim

When viewing a base in Airtable (via the browser interface), it would be really convenient to be able to click on a link and jump directly to that base’s API documentation. Maybe add it to the “Share” area? ~ Tim
