NocoDB

NocoDB is an open-source, self-hostable alternative to Airtable that turns any relational database — MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or SQLite — into a collaborative smart spreadsheet. It exposes a versioned REST API (v2 and v3) with separate Data APIs for record CRUD operations and Meta APIs for managing workspaces, bases, tables, fields, views, and attachments. Authentication is handled via API tokens or session auth tokens, with Swagger UI bundled into every instance for live exploration. NocoDB is available as a free community self-hosted deployment or as a managed cloud service with tiered plans ranging from Free to Enterprise.

NocoDB publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Attachments API, Auth API, Bases API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include Database, No-Code, Low-Code, Airtable Alternative, and Open Source.

The NocoDB catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

NocoDB’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, pricing, changelog, and 17 more developer resources.
