Export to Airtable.

Go to export.
Then select your resource and in Export as you will see Airtable.
Also select the Locale. Its only possible to export 1 locale at a time.
After exporting, it will push the data to the known table in Airtable.

Your base is now ready to use and modify it with extra fields such as product metafields.
