Link Tables and Lookup fields

[Sefik_Serengil]

Hi Folks,

I need to find the linked table id of a lookup type column. Airtable metadata api returns this information for record links type field but it does not return for lookup type fields. I share sample response of metadata api for those field types.

{
 "type": "multipleLookupValues",
 "id": "fldXYZ",
 "name": "Column 1"
},
{
 "type": "multipleRecordLinks",
 "options": {
 "linkedTableId": "tblXYZ",
 "isReversed": false,
 "prefersSingleRecordLink": false,
 "inverseLinkFieldId": "fldYYY"
 },
 "id": "fldAAA",
 "name": "Column 2"
}

This is still happening in the new API, please see the difference between a multipleLookupValues and  multipleRecordLinks:

The funny thing is that there is nothing in the documentation about multipleLookupValues
