How to export a list of extensions from an Airtable base

The Export Extension List automation exports all miniExtensions extensions and automations connected to a base into a table called miniExtensions List. This is useful for auditing what has been built in a base and keeping an Airtable record of your miniExtensions setup.

Setup

  1. From the miniExtensions dashboard, open the workspace and Airtable base you want to audit.

  2. Create the Export Extension List automation.

  3. Run the automation

Run the automation

Click Run automation in the Run section. When the export completes, miniExtensions will show a link to the miniExtensions List table in your base.

If miniExtensions List already exists, the automation will update the existing records rather than creating duplicates. Records are matched by Extension ID, so it is safe to run the automation more than once.

Exported fields

Each record in the miniExtensions List table represents one extension or automation and contains the following fields:

  • Extension ID β€” the unique identifier for the extension

  • Extension name β€” the name given to the extension

  • Type β€” the extension type (for example, Form, Portal, or CSV Exporter)

  • Base name β€” the name of the Airtable base

  • Extension configuration β€” the full configuration as a JSON string

  • Created time/date β€” when the extension was first created

  • Last updated time/date β€” when the extension was last modified

  • Last updated by β€” email address of the workspace member who last edited it

  • Enabled/Disabled state β€” whether the extension is currently enabled
