Has anyone figured out how to move an AirTable table onto an SQL database. I use Air-table for everything, but I’m starting to run into issues with the 100 record limit that Airtable imposes. Unfortuntely, it is a proprietary plugin making the API requests and it generates an error when the user retrieves over 100 records at a time (leaving many records blank).


Does anyone have codebase or ideas on how to ‘sync’ Airtable records into an SQL database, which can then be queried by a web app that displays dynamic content. I don’t want to move away from Airtable as a CMS because its so easy for other project collaborators to use for data entry.

For anybody still looking for a solution here: I built two-directional syncing between Airtable and Postgres / MySQL with Bracket. Whenever a change is made to either source, we update the other side in close to real-time. You also have controls over merge conflicts.


Also, if you’re not sure how to set up your SQL database, happy to help with that, too. We’ve set up DBs for free for a number of companies.


There are a few people in this community that might benefit from this, so would love to chat 🙂 my email is ian@usebracket.com.

What is the pricing model like? Is it like sequin.io?

Hey Hendrik, we’re cheaper than Sequin – we start at $10 / user!


To sync an Airtable table into an SQL database, you can use a few different approaches:

1. Batch API Requests: Write a script (in Python or JavaScript) that uses the Airtable API to fetch records in batches, iterating through each offset to retrieve more than 100 records. This way, you can get all records and insert them into your SQL database.

2. Integration Tools: Tools like Skyvia can automatically sync data between Airtable and an SQL database without coding, handling the API limits for you and keeping both systems in sync.
