Baserow

Prefer guided AI setup?

Instead of following these steps manually, you can use the AI Credential Assistant — describe what you want to connect and the AI will walk you through the setup step by step, tailored to your account.

Overview

Connect your Baserow account to Nirvai to automate no-code database operations, table management, and record workflows. Baserow is an open-source alternative to Airtable.

Supported Authentication Methods

  • Basic Authentication (Email/Password)

Prerequisites

  • A Baserow account (cloud or self-hosted)
  • Your account email and password

Setup Instructions

Basic Authentication

  1. In Nirvai, enter your Baserow credentials:
    • Email: Your Baserow account email
    • Password: Your Baserow account password
  2. Configure the Host URL:
    • For Baserow Cloud: https://api.baserow.io
    • For self-hosted: Your instance URL (e.g., https://baserow.yourcompany.com)

Important Notes

  • Baserow uses JWT authentication internally, but credentials are provided as email/password
  • For self-hosted instances, ensure the API is accessible from Nirvai
  • You can also use database tokens for more limited access (future implementation)
