I'm looking for "updated fields in a table" trigger. Having the list of the updated fields names in the event would do the work.
@dylburger It looks like the metadata API requires exposing a client secret. The Airtable actions do retrieve the tables' schemas, but the methods are not available to sources/triggers. Should this be labeled as blocked?
I think so @michelle0927 . It sounds like we'd need to do some work to expose the metadata to the source runtime in the same way we did the work for actions. CC @dannyroosevelt and @js07 since they worked on the actions more closely.
@js07 do you know what would be involved in this?
I think this would involve some backend work to get the credentials used to make Airtable Metadata API calls to the source runtime, in a similar way to the runtime for actions.
From Slack:
Airtable only includes fields that hold valid values in their list records API response, but it's possible the Airtable source could use the metadata API to list the table's schema, decorating the emitted event with the field names (and null values) for other fields.
