Is there a way to programmatically move a table from one base to another?

There is no easy way to do this programmatically.

You could use a synced table that retains the records after the originals are deleted. But when that table fills up, you need to manually sync to a different base.

You could use the REST API to copy data to a different target base, but you you still need a way to determine which target base to use as the target base fills up.

Is there a way to programmatically create a base or a table?

Scripting app and custom apps can create a table in their own bases. However, both require a user interaction to run. They cannot create a table in a different base.

There is currently no way to programmatically create a base.

Thanks so much! Are there any tutorials or docs that you could point me towards on 1.) using the API to copy data to a base and 2.) using the scripting app to create tables?

Hey @Olivia_Ehrenreich_Ma

You could use our On2Air Actions app to copy the records into another table via an Upsert or our Create multiple records options.

We also have a bulk Delete records action, so once the data is duplicated, it’s deleted from the original table.

You can run it from an Airtable automation or Zapier.

We don’t currently have anything to create new tables, so you would just need to direct to a new table a couple of times a year.
