## How to test the Airtable integration

After setting up the Airtable integration, you can test your access to the desired Airtable from this page. To access a specific Airtable, you'll need its Base ID and Table ID.

1. To extract Base ID and Table ID from an Airtable table, you must open the table in Airtable and copy two text fragments from the URL. The **Base ID** is highlighted in blue, and the **Table ID** is highlighted in yellow. You won't need the View ID (highlighted in pink) for this test.

2. After obtaining the Base ID and Table ID, paste them into FlowEQ's corresponding *Base* and *Table* fields. Enter any query into the Query field, using two quotation marks ("") to represent an empty input.
3. After entering your Base ID, Table ID, and Query, click the **Test Client** button. If successful, a green message will appear below saying *Client test successful!*
