Airtable Create Base
What it is
Create or find a base in Airtable
How it works
This block creates a new Airtable base in a specified workspace, or finds an existing one with the same name. When creating, you can optionally define initial tables and their fields to set up the schema.
Enable find_existing to search for a base with the same name before creating a new one, preventing duplicates in your workspace.
