    Hi Luka, and welcome to the community!

    Here are some answers as you vet consultants.

    Send data to external system if a record is created or updated

    Yes, there are a few ways to do this with script blocks, script automations, the custom app SDK, and also using services like Integromat and Zapier.

    Apply customized function to a list of records

    Yes if by “customized functions” you mean formulas applied to every row. There is presently no way to create your own functions, but this can be addressed with script blocks - javascript components that can act like custom functions asserting field-level outcomes for every row.

    Customized function can be integrated

    I think you are describing a use case where you would extend the existing formulas in Airtable to provide your own library of formulas. For example - Airtable lacks a Split() formula and ideally, it would be nice to add one. Sadly, this is not currently possible, however, there are ways to enhance any Airtable solution using the REST API and external services that can perform computations on rows and fields.
