> [As announced by Airtable](https://support.airtable.com/docs/airtable-api-key-deprecation-notice), API keys can no longer be used to connect to Airtable bases. Airtable bases must be reauthenticated with OAuth for your Glide apps to continue syncing. If our systems detect that you need to switch from API key to OAuth authentication, you will receive an email explaining which bases and team members must reauthenticate their credentials. If the team member is no longer part of your Glide team, please contact [Support](https://www.glideapps.com/support). Additional Details Every Airtable base connected…

Airtable to Glide synchronization is very very slow. In 5 columns \* 9 rows table, it takes more then 3 minutes to synchronize one piece of data from Airtable to Glide. Sometimes it take few refresh of Glide app, and it still won’t update a data!  
Before OAuth changes, both synchronizations worked in 1-2 seconds!
