# OAuth Connections

Unlike API keys which have to be copied and pasted, OAuth integration allows you to grant Alphi access to a third-party service such as Airtable and Webflow.

The main benefit of OAuth is the ability to restrict access to specific bases or sites within your account.

Additionally, OAuth connections are easier to manage because, unlike API Keys, they cannot be shared across different services.
