How To Use Linked Tables

Table of Contents

Linked Tables work in a similar manner to Linked Pages, but linking is limited to Pages within the target Table rather than across the entire workspace.

To link Table 1 to Table 2

  1. In Table 1, add a new property with “+ PROPERTY“
  2. Choose “Linked Table” as the property type
  3. Select the Table to link – ie. “Table 2”

Now Pages in Table 2 can be connected to directly from the Column in Table 1

Atom Inheritance #

There is also the option to define ‘Atom Inheritance’ in the Connected Table property options:

  1. Inherit Atoms from ‘Connected Table’
  2. Pass Atoms to ‘Connected Table’
  3. No Inheritance

Any Atoms captured in a Linked Page can be automatically inherited by a Page (Inherit Atoms) or vice versa, Atoms captured in a Page can be inherited by the Linked Page (Pass Atoms).

Happy Connecting!
