# Airtable

Airtable is a spreadsheet-database hybrid, with the features of a database but applied to a spreadsheet. To use Airtable with PixieBrix, you’ll need to set up an integration.

### Finding Airtable Base Id

Your "base" is your board the holds the data. To find your baseId, go to the base or project in Airtable.

When on a base, you can find the ID in the URL. It’s the first string that comes between the `/` and starts with `app`.

Copy the whole string, everything between `airtable.com/` and the next `/`
