Introduction

Data connections specify where the data comes from originally: Google Calendar, Air Table, or a file from DropBox. For data that is protected by auth, a data connection stores the authentication information: your authorization on Google data, Air Table API Key, or DropBox authorization, so that you do not need to re-authorize every time. Some public data is not protected by auth, then you simply need to copy and paste its URL into the data connection. A data connection is only used by an external data source, and external data must use a data connection. You can perform all data connection management (create, modify, remove, list) in the configuration panel.
