Mirror settings

You can use a mirror attribute to reflect the attribute value of another element. This element can exist in the same module, another module, or another workspace. You can mirror only one attribute. After you add a mirror attribute, you cannot configure the source attribute.
To use the mirror attribute, at least one link attribute must exist in the module that contains the mirror attribute. In the settings of that link attribute, an allowed target module must be specified. If the link attribute targets more than one module and the linked-in element is from a module that does not contain the mirror attribute, the mirror attribute will be empty.
Note: You cannot edit mirror attributes.

Setting Name Description
Value Source Attribute The attribute to mirror. You can select only one attribute. Because the attribute reflects the linked attributes that are in the workspace, the content of the source attribute differs in each workspace. Source attributes are grouped by the link attributes in the workspace. You can mirror the following attribute types: date, float, integer, link, list link, and text.
