Teable Api

What This Skill Does

The Teable API skill for OpenClaw provides a powerful, robust interface for managing your Teable databases programmatically. Teable is a next-generation, open-source alternative to Airtable, and this skill acts as a bridge between your AI agent and your structured data. It handles the full lifecycle of Teable resources, allowing users to automate CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations across bases, spaces, tables, dashboards, and even the trash bin. By integrating this skill, your OpenClaw agent can seamlessly sync data, generate reports, or reorganize your workspace without manual interaction.

Installation

To install, ensure you have your Teable environment configured. Use the command clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/killgfat/teable-api to pull the integration. You must have the requests library installed via pip. After installation, set your required environment variables: TEABLE_API_KEY is mandatory, while TEABLE_URL is optional for self-hosted instances (defaulting to the cloud version). Verify your configuration by checking that the environment variables are accessible to your shell session.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for automating repetitive database tasks. Common use cases include: 1. Automated data entry from form submissions or email threads directly into a Teable table. 2. Periodic reporting by listing records and piping them into an AI summary task. 3. Workspace management, such as automatically cleaning up old bases or creating new project spaces for team collaboration. 4. Real-time data synchronization between different platforms and your Teable instance.

Example Prompts

• "List all the bases in my work space and tell me the total count of tables for each."
• "Create a new record in the Project Tracking table with the name 'Q2 Expansion' and status set to 'Planned'."
• "Find the record with ID rec123 in my CRM table and update the status to 'Completed'."

Tips & Limitations

Always store your API key securely; never commit it to source control. If using a self-hosted instance, ensure your TEABLE_URL does not include a trailing slash. Note that API rate limits apply based on your Teable plan. Regularly audit your trash bin using the teable_trash.py utility to ensure you are not hitting storage quotas unexpectedly. If a command fails, double-check your table-id or base-id values, as these are specific to your instance topology.
