Got it. Try:
1. Creating a new text field to hold the URL
2. Creating a new checkbox field that'll trigger an automation
3. Create an automation that'll trigger when the checkbox is ticked, and it'll have an "Update record" action where it'll place the URL into the field

Airtable has never said that they are disabling their API.
You can easily download attachments from Airtable and send them to social media platforms (or other apps) by using Make's Airtable automations.
You mentioned Zapier in your message above, but I would STRONGLY recommend against using Zapier.
Make is INFINITELY more powerful & customizable than Zapier, yet it is SIGNIFICANTLY CHEAPER than Zapier.
I wrote an entire post here comparing Make vs. Zapier.
I’ve also assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread:

For example, to instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable, check out this thread on instantly triggering a Make automation from Airtable using a webhook:

And Make even created an entire Make Training Academy here.

i also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances here:
