felores/airtable-mcp: Search, create and update Airtable bases, tables, fields, and records using Claude Desktop and MCP (Model Context Protocol) clients

A Model Context Protocol server that provides tools for interacting with Airtable's API. This server enables programmatic management of Airtable bases, tables, fields, and records through Claude Desktop or other MCP clients.

This MCP server features a specialized implementation that allows it to build tables in stages, leveraging Claude's agentic capabilities and minimizing the failure rate typically seen in other MCP servers for Airtable when building complex tables. It also includes system prompt and project knowledge markdown files to provide additional guidance for the LLM when leveraging projects in Claude Desktop.

1. Install Node.js (version 18 or higher) and npm from nodejs.org
2. Verify installation:

   node --version
   npm --version

⚠️ Important: Before running, make sure to setup your Airtable API key

1. Log in to your Airtable account at airtable.com
2. Create a personal access token at Airtable's Builder Hub
3. In the Personal access token section select these scopes:
   • data.records:read
   • data.records:write
   • schema.bases:read
   • schema.bases:write
4. Select the workspace or bases you want to give access to the personal access token
5. Keep this key secure - you'll need it for configuration

1. Navigate to the Claude configuration directory:

   • Windows: C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\Claude
   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/

   You can also find these directories inside the Claude Desktop app: Claude Desktop > Settings > Developer > Edit Config

2. Create or edit claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "airtable": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@felores/airtable-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "AIRTABLE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: For Windows paths, use double backslashes (\) or forward slashes (/).

mcp-installer is a MCP server to install other MCP servers.

1. Install mcp-installer
2. Install the Airtable MCP server by prompting Claude Desktop:

Install @felores/airtable-mcp-server set the environment variable AIRTABLE_API_KEY to 'your_api_key'

Claude will install the server, modify the configuration file and set the environment variable AIRTABLE_API_KEY to your Airtable API key.

If you want to contribute or modify the code run this in your terminal:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/felores/airtable-mcp.git
cd airtable-mcp

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the server
npm run build

# Run locally
node build/index.js

Then modify the Claude Desktop configuration file to use the local installation:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "airtable": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/airtable-mcp/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "AIRTABLE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

1. Start Claude Desktop
2. The Airtable MCP server should be listed in the "Connected MCP Servers" section
3. Test with a simple command:

• list_bases: List all accessible Airtable bases
• list_tables: List all tables in a base
• create_table: Create a new table with fields
• update_table: Update a table's name or description

• create_field: Add a new field to a table
• update_field: Modify an existing field

• list_records: Retrieve records from a table
• create_record: Add a new record
• update_record: Modify an existing record
• delete_record: Remove a record
• search_records: Find records matching criteria
• get_record: Get a single record by its ID

• singleLineText: Single line text field
• multilineText: Multi-line text area
• email: Email address field
• phoneNumber: Phone number field
• number: Numeric field with optional precision
• currency: Money field with currency symbol
• date: Date field with format options
• singleSelect: Single choice from options
• multiSelect: Multiple choices from options

Available colors for select fields:

• blueBright, redBright, greenBright
• yellowBright, purpleBright, pinkBright
• grayBright, cyanBright, orangeBright
• blueDark1, greenDark1
