For cloud storage, Days uses the free Airtable service. The following tutorial explains the steps involved in setting up the Airtable database.

  1. Registering with Airtable, the basic option is free of charge: Sign up - Airtable
  2. Copy the empty base from the following link: Airtable - Days Empty Screen_Shot_2016-04-01_at_5_04_20_PM.png
  3. Get the API key from your Airtable account: How do I get my API key?
  4. Get the Base ID at https://airtable.com/api and select the base you previously copied. The Base ID is located in the URL of your browser's address bar. The URL will look like https://airtable.com/appNwxe0TbWYoJe6o/api/docs#curl/introduction, and the part that begins with "app" is the application ID (appNwxe0TbWWYoJe6o in this case).
  5. Configure the data in Days preferences. Days only stores this data on the device itself, as you can check in the source code.
  6. Now you can enjoy cloud synchronization using the Airtable service.
