# Set up Airtable

Query, create and update records in Airtable bases, limited to the bases you authorise.

- **Publisher**: Airtable Official
- **Hosted endpoint**: `https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp`
- **Transports**: streamable-http
- **Authentication**: OAuth with dynamic registration, or a personal access token sent as a bearer token.
- **What it can touch**: Read and write, matching your base permissions; admins can block MCP.
- **Status**: Active

## Install

The vendor hosts this server, so you only add its URL and nothing runs on your machine. If it needs authentication, the row above says how; OAuth servers prompt you on first connection.

### Claude Code

`shell`

```
claude mcp add --transport http --scope project airtable https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp
```

### Cursor

`.cursor/mcp.json`

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "airtable": {
      "url": "https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Codex

`~/.codex/config.toml`

```
[mcp_servers.airtable]
url = "https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp"
```
