nocodb.count_records
ActionDatabases & warehousesconnection required

Count the records matching a filter, without fetching any of them.
Connection
- Required
- Yes — the node will not save without one
- Auth type
- API key
- Providers
- NocoDB
- Secret shape
- the API token, or {"api_token": "…"}
- Config it needs
- base_url, base_id, table_id, workspace_id
- Resolved by
- config.connection_id, else node.connection_id
Configuration
3 fields, none required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
table_id Id of the table to act on, from Table context menu → Copy table ID. Overrides the default table id on the connection. | string | No | — | — | mftbsyu6dxo4y8i |
where NocoDB filter expression, e.g. (Status,eq,todo)~and(Amount,gt,100). Leave empty to match every record. | string | No | — | — | (Status,eq,todo) |
view_id Id of a view whose own filters, sorts and visible fields should apply as well. | string | No | — | — | — |
Example configuration
Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.
{
"table_id": "mftbsyu6dxo4y8i",
"where": "(Status,eq,todo)"
}Output
One shape.

}See Count Records run in a workflow.
In a technical demo we add the NocoDB connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
