Link Settings

This property box determines which entries will be linked with the Create Link activity and what their document relationship will be.

Note: You can only create links to eight items with this activity. Those items can be single entries or a group of entries returned by the Find Entries or Search Repository activities. For example, if the folder Meeting Minutes has a hundred entries and you use a Find Entries activity to find all entries in that folder, the Output Entries for that Find Entries activity would be one item even though it contains 100 entries.
