Made a Free Tool That Extracts Airtable Base IDs from Table URL Instantly

I've been working with Airtable APIs lately and got tired of the usual hassle - you know, logging into the API docs, hunting through pages to find your Base ID, copying the wrong string... it's annoying.

Just built this free tool that solves exactly this problem. You literally just paste any Airtable URL and it instantly extracts the Base ID, Table ID, and View ID for you. No sign-up, no BS.

Check it out here: https://shortcuts.sequentialroutine.com/base-id

What I love about it:
- Takes 2 seconds instead of 2 minutes
- Works with any Airtable link
- Everything happens locally in your browser (no data gets sent anywhere)
- One-click copy buttons for each ID

Been using it for our own iOS Shortcuts and API integrations https://shortcuts.sequentialroutine.com . Super handy if you're doing any automation work with Airtable or just need those IDs quickly.

The tool is completely free and works right in your browser. Worth bookmarking if you work with Airtable regularly.

Hey @ShortcutsFan!

I think this might be just my browser, but wanted to share it with you:

Hi @Mike_AutomaticN , thank you for sharing this with us! We haven't received similar feedback from other users so far. It looks like the issue is related to your network's security settings—specifically, a strong firewall (FortiGuard) that might be blocking newly observed domains by default.

Our website has been live since last year and we receive hundreds of visitors each month without reported access issues. If possible, could you please try accessing the page from a different network or device? This should help determine if the block is related to your current network environment. Let us know if you continue to have trouble!

Worked now! Same device, same browser :D
