AI Chat Assistant for Airtable Data

This n8n template enables you to build an AI-powered assistant that connects directly with Airtable. It allows users to query, filter, and analyze Airtable data through natural chat interactions. Powered by OpenAI and enhanced with dynamic tools, the assistant can retrieve records, apply filters, execute calculations, and even generate maps or graphs — all based on conversational input.

It’s designed for anyone who wants to turn Airtable into a conversational database interface, reducing the need for complex queries and making data exploration more intuitive.
