Create link

With “Create Shortcut”, you can create a link (alias/link) to the selected documents and save it in another folder within your data or project space. Links themselves do not take up any storage space. Please select the file from which you would like to create a link. Then click on “Create Shortcut” and select the folder in which you want to save the link in the following dialog.

Links are automatically updated when the target object is moved. They are also displayed as follows.

Notes for administrators:

Links are not displayed for users if they either do not have read permission for the original document or if the document is in the recycle bin.
Links are always displayed for administrators. They are highlighted in red if the target object is in the recycle bin or no longer exists.
