## Good to know

Set field types after import; everything arrives as text.

The extension creates files on your computer. It does not sign in to Airtable, and nothing is sent to Airtable until you import the file yourself.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does NotebookLM have a built-in Airtable integration?

No. Gemini Notebook has no built-in connection to Airtable. The working route is a file: export from NotebookLM in a format Airtable reads (CSV), then import or open it there.

### Can a literature table become an Airtable base?

Yes. A NotebookLM data table comparing papers imports as one record per paper.

### Does my content pass through a server on its way to Airtable?

No. Files are converted in your browser and saved to your downloads folder. You move them into the other app yourself.
