Could you be more specific on what you are trying to accomplish. How can we replicate what you’re doing to see if we get the same error.

I believe this belongs in its own thread due to the fact that this thread is for the data\_list\_view issue that were all having trying to connect it to airtables with the API.

Ill try my best to help though… have you tried setting the

“then do from QUOTE-label set Text to error” to see whats returning?

Just to confirm, Airtable integration is working now! Thank you Steven!  
I will test more and report if everything is OK (I had some problems with one table only, others are working as expected).  
But Google is still broken, cannot log into my account - I’m sure you’ll fix it too 🙂

Glad to hear, I just posted in the thread you linked re: Google Sheets. Can you please take a look and let me know if you can try any of the things I asked?

I can confirm, Airtable is now working correctly.  
Just a question:  
If i update a table structure (for example adding a field), What should i do to see new fields in blocks such as get value from table?

You can go to your dashboard (where all of your apps are listed) and there is a tab called `My Data Sources` which will show all of your data sources. One of the options in that table is to `sync with source` this should go and grab any new columns for you to be able to use on our platform. Note it will also delete any columns if you’ve deleted them on your Airtable or Google Sheet. Let me know if you run into any issues.
