Create base

airtable.createBase creates a base in a workspace. Use it when an automation owns the initial structure.

automations/create-client-base.automation.ts

import { automation } from "automate.ax"
import { airtable } from "automate.ax/airtable"

export default automation("Create client base", () => {
  airtable.createBase({
    name: "Client CRM",
    workspaceId: "wsp123",
    tables: [
      { name: "Contacts", fields: [{ name: "Name", type: "singleLineText" }] },
    ],
  })
})

Inputs: name, workspaceId, and a non-empty tables array are required. Every table needs a name and at least one field; its first field becomes the primary field. Field description and provider-documented options are optional. The account needs schema.bases:write and workspace creator access. Returns { id, tables } with stable table, field, and default-view IDs. Airtable rejects unsupported primary-field types and duplicate field names.
