Description
This is Airtable's own hosted MCP server, distinct from the community airtable-mcp-server
package also listed here. It runs as a remote service at https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp, so there is nothing to
install locally and no token to paste into a config file if you connect through OAuth.
Its scope is wider than most database connectors. Beyond reading and writing rows, it can inspect and change
structure: list_tables and get_table_schema expose a base's shape, and the server can create and configure whole
new bases. That makes it usable for the "set this up for me" half of Airtable work, not only the "what is in this
table" half. Record operations cover querying with Airtable formulas and filters, plus create_record,update_record and delete_record.
Authorisation is OAuth by default, which is the recommended path and what the major clients expect; passing a
personal access token as an Authorization: Bearer header is supported for custom setups. It works with any
MCP-capable client, including Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor.
Worth knowing which server you want: the official one is hosted, OAuth-based and can alter schema, while the
community stdio package runs locally against a personal access token. Teams that cannot send base data to a hosted
endpoint will want the local one; everyone else will find this the lower-friction option.
