To create a key of this type:

  • Click on the + Create New Key button;
  • On the resulting Create New Key form, choose AirTable in the Type pick list;

  • Optionally populate the Description field;
  • Populate the following fields accordingly, then click the Create Key button to create your new key:

Tip

Instructions for generating Personal Access Tokens in Airtable can be found on the Airtable website

Revoking Access

If at any point you wish to revoke access to any of the above accounts from your Hornbill instance, just delete the relevant KeySafe key(s) from the KeySafe list.
