Baserow 2.3 is here
Baserow 2.3 brings major updates across databases, applications, and automations.

→ Collapse, expand, and summarize grouped data
→ Import Excel files directly into new tables
→ Undo, redo, and restore Application Builder elements
→ Execute JavaScript in workflows
→ Inspect every automation step with Node History
→ Read CSV and Excel files in workflows
→ Create or update up to 1,000 rows in a single action
→ Trigger workflows when specific fields are updated
→ Build reusable workflows and start them from apps or other workflows
→ Create more flexible, responsive application layouts and menus
→ Work with new formula functions and duration values
The Automation Builder is also officially out of beta. Plus, we’ve introduced automation credits in Baserow Cloud, with monthly allowances based on your plan.
4 automation ideas
What can you actually automate with Baserow? In our latest webinar, we built four practical examples:
Track task performance over time
Take a daily snapshot of open and completed tasks, build a historical dashboard, and receive a daily summary by email.
Turn project templates into scheduled tasks
Use a CSV or Excel template to automatically create project tasks and calculate deadlines based on the project start date.
Automate budget approvals
Send new expenses to Slack for approval, check the remaining budget automatically, and alert the team when spending reaches critical thresholds.
Assign support tickets with AI
Use AI to identify a ticket’s category and priority, then automatically assign it to the right agent based on skills and current workload.

Made with Baserow
Approve requests directly from Slack
Another example connects Baserow and Slack to simplify approvals.
A new out-of-office request in Baserow automatically appears in Slack. A manager clicks a button to respond, the record is updated in Baserow, and the Slack message updates too.
Capture ideas before they disappear
One of our ambassadors wanted a faster way to capture temporary notes across Mac, iPad, and iPhone.
So they built their own quick-capture app with Claude Code, Baserow, Cloudflare, and Craft — in around 90 minutes.
It does exactly what they need: capture text instantly, edit or share it later, or send it to their notes. No unnecessary features or complicated interface.
A great example of building a small tool around your workflow instead of adapting your workflow to another app.
Inside our latest Partner & Ambassador session
We recently brought our Partners and Ambassadors together for a closed session with Baserow’s founders.
We talked about real customer use cases, product direction, and what’s coming next.
As a sneak peek: we plan to expand Baserow’s AI capabilities, with a growing focus on AI agents and how they can work within the Baserow platform.

New customer stories
Building a compliant research data hub
Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin replaced fragmented spreadsheets with a secure research collaboration database.
The result? Real-time collaboration, automated data synchronization, and a full audit trail — while giving research teams more time to focus on research instead of data administration.
Saving 50%+ on business continuity software
AND-E UK needed to manage business continuity, risk, software inventory, policies, and response procedures.
Instead of buying a rigid GRC platform, they built a solution around their own processes with Baserow — saving more than 50% compared to traditional software.
