LinkInfo business rule

The LinkInfo business rule displays attributes from other modules or workspaces in an element by using links.
For example, module A contains an incoming links attribute with links from module B. With the LinkInfo business rule, you can display attribute values of module B in module A.
Note:
  • The LinkInfo business rule cannot be used in the Prefix attribute.
  • The LinkInfo business rule does not log history.
