Airtable has 3rd party affiliates - why not Scrivener?
Airtable’s spreadsheet like databases are beyond perfect - ease of use - comprehensive inter-linking.
Access to those bases, views, and Page Presentations would take over 90% of my linking needs out of my project’s overhead - I need to refer to well over 3,000 life time friends, institutions, works of art, residences, etc. Scrivener’s Titles, Labels, Status, Keywords - it’s metadata capacity cannot be improved on - it’s like coming home to me - but there is this data access as needed problem…
I can workaround by creating view pages in Airtable, saving them as images, and then importing those into Scrivener - but I won’t live long enough (over 80) to get this project done: a memoir-like giant tombstone with everything, everyone interacting with me in interesting, funny, and sad ways in a very long, rich life. Airtable’s presentation tools are stone-age compared to Scrivener. Just saying?
Any hope of a link-up as a third-party affiliate to Airtable? Or having our very own database?

PS: Scrivener could clean-up still more with a Memory Album Template - more people living longer (Covid notwithstanding) - not to mention periodic time-on-our-hands pandemics (until we have new posses in London & DC, at least - one that 100% is guided by science).
