Ollang MCP + Airtable

The Airtable MCP Server is a third-party project and is not developed, maintained, or affiliated with Ollang or Airtable. Please exercise caution when connecting to any third-party MCP server and review its source code and permissions before use.

Combine the Airtable MCP Server with Ollang MCP to build automated translation pipelines powered by your Airtable bases.

Why Airtable + Ollang?

Airtable is widely used for managing localization projects, tracking translation progress, and organizing multilingual content. By connecting both MCP servers, your AI assistant can:

Pull content from Airtable records and submit it to Ollang for translation
Track translation order statuses and update Airtable automatically
Manage glossaries and translation memories stored in Airtable
Create new Airtable records with translated content

Airtable MCP Tools

The Airtable MCP server provides these tools:

Tool	Description
`list_bases`	List all accessible Airtable bases
`list_tables`	List tables in a base
`list_records`	List records with optional filtering
`search_records`	Search records by field values
`create_record`	Create a new record

`delete_records`	Delete records

Example Workflows

Batch translate content from Airtable

Look at my "Product Descriptions" table in Airtable. For each record where
the "Status" field is "Ready for Translation", take the "English Description"
field, upload it to Ollang as a document, and create a translation order
for French and German. Update the Airtable record with the Ollang order ID.

Track translation progress

Check all my Ollang orders and update the corresponding Airtable records
in the "Translations" table with the current order status.

Build a glossary from translations

Search my Airtable "Glossary" base for all approved terms, create a custom
instruction in Ollang with those terms, and use it for future translations.
