Link documents and tables

Use an ordinary wikilink in the document

A Markdown document can link to a .kitable workspace item with ordinary wikilink syntax. Open the link to inspect the Kitable and choose the relevant table or view.

Kition 0.1.41 does not support the old live table-view embed, row-link, or query-string syntax inside Markdown.

# Launch v2

Structured project data: [[Projects.kitable]]

Table links do not create Markdown backlinks

The document Backlinks panel scans up to 500 Markdown files for explicit [[...]] wikilinks. It does not scan Kitable records or synthesize backlinks from document_link field values.

If a document should show an incoming relationship in the Backlinks panel, add an explicit wikilink from another Markdown document. A table-only reference will not appear there.

Paths require maintenance

Kition 0.1.41 does not guarantee that a document_link value follows a document rename or move, and it does not document a delete prompt that repairs every affected table record. After changing a Markdown path, open representative linked cells and update stale values.

Likewise, rename or move a .kitable item only after checking Markdown wikilinks that point to it. Treat document and table links as navigational references, not a bidirectional synchronization transaction.

A practical pattern

• Keep structured status, dates, ratings, and ownership in a table
• Keep long-form notes in Markdown documents
• Store each note path in a document_link field when table-to-document navigation is useful
• Add a normal wikilink in the Markdown document when document-to-Kitable navigation is also useful
• Verify both directions after renames, moves, imports, or restores
