I don’t quite understand the api documentation for how to retrieve one particular record. You can’t send a body in a get request can you so it all has to go in the url. I’m not sure of how to format it.



I have an emails table. I want to do a GET request when a user enters their email address to see if we already have it in the table.





The api documentation says to retrieve a record I have to set the url up like this but I can’t get it to work.




Please could somebody tell me how to construct the GET request url for this so i can pass in my api key and the email that i’d like to search for?

Hi,



construct your URL here:


Airtable API Encoder


Set base ID, table name, filter by formula (put email in " duoble quotes, %22 )


field name is case-sensitive(maybe) and if it contains spaces, should be in { }



Result will be smth like:



const link = 'https://api.airtable.com/v0/app_YOUR_BASEID/yourTableName?filterByFormula=email%3D%22username%40domain.com



then add:






const options={


    method: 'GET',


    headers: {


        'Content-Type': 'application/json',


        'Authorization': 'Bearer '+ YOUR_KEY}


}





let response = await remoteFetchAsync(link, options)


const pageSummary = await response.json();


output.inspect(pageSummary)
