Links to Documents and Folders


For quick access to frequently used folders and/or documents, you can create links, so that they can be moved to another directory. Links can be created in any folder, with Edit access level or higher.

Creating a link to a document

There are several ways to create a link to a document:
  • in the context menu of a document click Create link;
  • in any directory of the Documents section check the boxes of the required documents and click SelectedCreate Links for Documents in the toolbar;
  • in the toolbar of a document page go to Actions – Create Link.
In the opened dialog box (Fig. 1), using the button select a folder, in which the link to the document will be created. Then click Create. To clear the Move to Folder field, click .

By default the Link Name field is unavailable for editing, because the Use Source Name option is enabled.
Use Source Name – if the box is checked, the link name changes automatically when the document and/or folder name is edited. If you uncheck the box, the Link Name field becomes available for editing and if the document and/or folder name is changed, the link name will not be changed.
In the documents list a link has the icon.

Creating a link to a folder

Links to a folder can be also created in several ways:
  • in the context menu of a folder select Create Link;
  • in the toolbar of a folder page click Actions – Create link.
Creating a link to a folder is similar to creating a link to a document.
In the list of documents link to a folder will be displayed with the icon.
