Getting Started

Create an account

Go to bases.effortlessapi.com and register with your email address. You'll receive a magic link to verify your account — no password required.

The dashboard

After logging in, you'll land on your dashboard. From here you can:

• Create a new base — start building a PostgreSQL database from an Airtable base
• View your existing bases — see all your databases, their status, and connection details
• Access branches — work with test/staging copies of your bases

What to do first

1. Read Connect Airtable to link your Airtable account
2. Read Bases & Branches to understand the core concepts
3. Follow Create Your First Base for a step-by-step walkthrough
4. Read Recommended Workflow to understand the test/prod pattern before you go live
