Why teams connect Airtable and Supabase

Keep Airtable and Supabase synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Developers sync Airtable with Supabase to pair a no-code editing surface with a developer-managed database backend. Airtable Records map to Supabase Tables, so product data edited in Airtable Views serves applications through Supabase, with Row Level Security Policies governing what the app exposes.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between Airtable and Supabase continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • 01 Let non-engineers manage app content in an Airtable Base while Supabase serves it in production.
  • 02 Mirror Supabase Views into Airtable Tables for operational review without SQL.
  • 03 Keep Row Level Security Policies as the enforcement layer while Airtable remains the editing layer.
  • 04 Consolidate several Airtable bases into one analytical database for reporting without manual CSV exports.

Common sync patterns

App content sync

Airtable Records and Fields replicate into Supabase Tables that the application reads, keeping content editing no-code.

Structured data mapping

complex Airtable Fields land in Supabase JSONB Columns, preserving nested values for queries.

User data visibility

selected attributes from auth.users sync into an Airtable Table so support can look up accounts in Views.

What you can sync between Airtable and Supabase

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Airtable objects Supabase objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Map to sync tables; schema is readable through the base metadata endpoints. Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Views Filtered subsets of a table that can scope which records a sync reads. Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Linked records Cross-table references that carry relationships between synced tables. Database Functions Postgres functions that can transform or validate synced rows. Linked records is specific to Airtable and Database Functions to Supabase — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attachments File fields exposed as expiring URLs that syncs can mirror to other systems. Storage Object Metadata File metadata rows that can be joined to synced application data. Attachments is specific to Airtable and Storage Object Metadata to Supabase — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collaborators User fields useful for mapping record ownership to accounts in a CRM or database. Schemas Namespaces (public and custom) that scope sync access. Collaborators is specific to Airtable and Schemas to Supabase — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bases Top-level containers; each base has its own API endpoint and schema. auth.users Managed authentication users, often mirrored into CRM or support systems. Bases is specific to Airtable and auth.users to Supabase — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Airtable and Supabase

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Airtable Supabase Sub-second propagation

DetectionAirtable pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Incremental updates: changes in Airtable are detected and synced efficiently in realtime (webhook-based — creator role required to create webhooks).

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Supabase as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Supabase Airtable Sub-second propagation

DetectionSupabase pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Log-based CDC via Postgres logical replication, the same WAL feed that powers Supabase Realtime.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Airtable through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Airtable: The Web API enforces a per-base limit of 5 requests per second.
  • Supabase: SQL access is bounded by connection limits (pooled connections are provided); the REST layer is subject to the platform's limits.

How the Airtable and Supabase connectors work

Airtable

Integration surface
REST API (per-base Web API plus metadata and webhooks endpoints)
Authentication
OAuth (Airtable OAuth grant to specific bases or all resources); the authorizing user must have a `creator` role, since only creator roles can create webhooks
Change detection
Incremental updates: changes in Airtable are detected and synced efficiently in realtime (webhook-based — creator role required to create webhooks); formula fields don't emit change events and are re-synced every hour
Capabilities

Rate limits
The Web API enforces a per-base limit of 5 requests per second.
Airtable setup guide

Supabase

Integration surface
Direct PostgreSQL wire protocol connection, plus an auto-generated REST API (PostgREST)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string) for SQL access; API keys (anon / service role) for the REST layer
Change detection
Log-based CDC via Postgres logical replication, the same WAL feed that powers Supabase Realtime; database webhooks can also fire on row changes
