Hi guys,  
There is the **Users** database but when referencing it when creating a view, the dropdown seems to call it **User** database. Is a DB name not a DB name? Obviously not. Not a biggie of course, but I did find it strange.

As a matter of interest, how should it be referenced in AI - Users or User?

Tnx

Under the hood its called “User”. Indeed weird that in the UI it shows that the database name is “Users”. I guess its just to make it more simple to understand. Maybe it would be better if Fibery called is the User database, and had a default Users view outside of spaces? Default as in, comes with the workspace, but can be removed.

It used to be best practice to name database in singular form, and let Fibery automatically make it plural where needed, but later Fibery also started making plural database names into singular where needed.

I think in the AI it doesn’t really matter as it will understand either way, but technically the name of the database is “User”.
