Convenient access to [Airtable](https://airtable.com/invite/r/4v89cs8n) data using PHP.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

PHP 5.6.0 and later.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the library via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). Run the following command:

```
composer require knut/airtable-php
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Creating a Client

[](#creating-a-client)

1. Register for an [Airtable](https://airtable.com/invite/r/4v89cs8n) account and find your API key here:
2. Create a new base and find your Base ID here:

> Your API key carries the same privileges as your user account, so be sure to keep it secret!

Now you can create your Airtable client:

```
$airtable = new \Airtable\Client($apiKey, $baseId);
```

### Finding Records

[](#finding-records)

Now you can query a set of records from a table in your base using the following syntax:

```
$records = $airtable->companies->find();
```

where `companies` is the name of your table in your Airtable base. Note how you can access all table by named properties on the Airtable client.

> Note that you can only request a maximimum of 100 records in a single query. To retrieve more records, use the "batch" feature below.

**Finding Records by View-name**

In Airtable you can create pre-defined filters in named [Views](https://support.airtable.com/hc/en-us/articles/202624989-Guide-to-views). This can be a very useful starting point for many queries as you don't have to specify all the filters in code, just reference a named View.

This is how you find records for a named View:

```
$records = $airtable->companies->find(['view' => 'Name of your view in Airtable']);
```

**Finding Records by Filtering Formula**

You can use a [Formula](https://support.airtable.com/hc/en-us/articles/203255215-Formula-Field-Reference) to filter your records by code using the `filterByFormula` parameter.

In example to only include records where `website_url` isn't empty you can use:

```
$records = $airtable->companies->find([
    'filterByFormula' => "NOT({website_url} = '')"
]);
```

**Select only what you need**

Very often you don't need all the data in a result set. You can use the `fields` parameter to reduce the amount of data transferred.

For example, to only return data from `name` and `website_url`, specify these two field names in your parameters:

```
$records = $airtable->companies->find([
    'fields' => ['name', 'website_url']
]);
```

**Sorting**

You can specify a sort order, limit and offset as part of our query.

```
```

Records can be created using the `create`function on a table:

```
$company = $airtable->companies->create([
    'name' => 'New Company',
    'website_url' => 'https://example.com',
]);
```

### Updating a Record

[](#updating-a-record)

Records can be updated using the `update` function on a table:

```
$company->name = 'An Updated Company';
$updatedRecord = $airtable->companies->update($company);
```

### Deleting a Record

[](#deleting-a-record)

Records can be deleted using the `delete` function on a table.
