🔧 Sudden 403 Error on Airtable Node — Was Working Seconds Ago

Hi n8n Support Team,

I’ve encountered a sudden issue with the Airtable node that was working just moments ago. Now, I’m consistently receiving a 403 - Forbidden error when trying to perform a Record → Get operation using a valid Airtable Personal Access Token.

Here are the details:

  • Node Name: Airtable3
  • Node Type: n8n-nodes-base.airtable
  • Operation: Get Record
  • Token Scope: Includes data.records:read, and I have confirmed access to the base and table.
  • n8n Version: 1.94.0 (Cloud)
  • Base & Table: Confirmed correct names and access
  • Record ID: Valid and tested (works when accessed manually)

What’s strange:
This exact workflow was working perfectly just seconds earlier — I made no changes to the Airtable token, base, or table names. Suddenly, the error below started showing up:

403 - {"error":{"type":"INVALID_PERMISSIONS_OR_MODEL_NOT_FOUND","message":"Invalid permissions, or the requested model was not found."}}

Here’s the full payload if needed (stack trace included):

I’ve double-checked:

  • The token permissions
  • The base/table names
  • Record ID validity

Could you help confirm if this is an internal issue, or if there’s something else I need to reset?

Thanks in advance!
