FAQ

Questions about Get Table Fields.

What does the Get Table Fields action do in Baserow?
Returns the column definitions for a table — each field's name, ID, type, and configuration (e.g., link to another table, formula, single/multi-select options). Useful at workflow-build time to validate field types before writes.
What inputs does Get Table Fields require?
Required: Table ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Baserow returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Get Table Fields support batch operations?
Yes. Run Get Table Fields inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Baserow's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
