Introduction

Baserow plugins let you fully customize and extend Baserow quickly and easily. Multiple plugins can be installed into a new or existing Baserow installation, they get full access to Baserow’s internals for maximum customization and are straightforward develop and publish.

Some examples of what you can do with a Baserow plugin are:

• Add new Baserow:
  • Field Types
  • View Types/Filters/Sorts/Decorations/Aggregations
  • Formula Functions/Types
• Add or customize pages, components, styling
• Integrate with 3rd party APIs or software

• And much more!

Baserow Plugins are only available for self-hosted installations currently and are experimental and subject to change.

1. You should always make backups of your Baserow data before installing and using any plugin.
