Why do I need to transfer from an API Key to OAuth Authentication in On2Air?
Airtable announced they will disable API Keys that allow you to connect to any third-party service in February 2024 to move to a new OAuth authentication system. They disabled all keys effective February 1, 2024.

This will allow us to access your Airtable workspace and bases just like we’ve been doing with your API Key connection
- While you can choose individuals bases, you will need to continually create OAuth connection authentications to On2Air if you ever want to use more than a single workspace, base, or all bases in your Airtable workspace.
