Access Airtable from Gdevelop?

How do I access data from Airtable in Gdevelop.

I have taken care of some of the preliminary tasks like creating a personal access token in airtable and locating the base id. The Advanced HTTP extension is known to me and installed.

A Google search for “Access Airtable from Gdevelop” comes back with questionable data and I was wondering if anybody here has done this before.

…yeah that, actually looks right

I am getting close in that I am getting a response from the server: “Authentication required”. To no surprise, since I haven’t included the PAT (Personal Access Token). Any idea where that would go?

I have looked at “Advanced HTTP” which is even more confusing to me. Any help would be much appreciated.

request body content maybe…?

That’s supposed to be empty for a GET.

Frustrating…

maybe its meant to be in a header? there is an gdevelop extension that allows for more advanced networking, try installing it

I managed to do it with advance http.


I got a successful response (yeah I put it as string for demonstration purposes):

You are not meant to use the:

But instead:

And then it would be a Gdevelop structure / array - You can use the debugger to know how the values are returned.

The way advance http works, is that we first create a template then prefill the template (i.e as above we attached the authorization header). We can then launch the request whenever we need and read the response
You should use this definitely use this to make sure it succeeded before trying to process the data:

Perfect! Thank you so much.
