Exporting data from an Airtable table - not mine

[Gill_Walker]

Hi

My ex-VA moved some key data of mine from Excel to Airtable. I have access to the airtable table, and I need to continue to work on it.

The VA left me because she caught COVID and I now cannot contact her.

The table does not permit copying.

How can I move the data either to my Airtable account or to an external tool?

With thanks
Gill

I am sorry you are in this situation. However, you do not have many options if you are not a collaborator for the base. If you only have access to a shared view that does not allow copying, then you cannot easily copy the data. That’s how Airtable permissions work. You can still manually copy what text you can see on the screen item by item.
