That's a risk I'm willing to take. Airtable doesn't have an official, automated local backup system yet. Their forum post indicates it as well https://communit

Ideally, airtable should download a copy of all my database files into dropbox at least once/day, but that feature doesn't exist.
It should also have a automatic file downloader backup (e.g. when you upload an image, it goes to their amazonS3 server → that should ideally be backed up locally as well). Doesn't exist either. Just have to use the plugin I wrote for the time being
There is a 3rd party solution for backing up airtables using its API. Its on this forum post. https://community.airtable.com/t/zenbackups-airtable-database-backups/3582?source_topic_id=5052 https://community.airtable.com/t/zenbackups-airtable-databas.... Personally, I have not used it.
Another thing from a risk management standpoint. Airtable has only 1 API key, and that key has access to EVERYTHING. If someone knows both your API key + your airtable's base ID, they can do anything with it. Issue GET requests for data, PATCH and update values in your database, etc.
