Testing the link

You can test the link you have created to ensure that it works correctly.

About this task

To test a link you have created:

Procedure

  1. In the source workspace, right-click the location where you created the link.
  2. Click Link To and select the link from the Link to list.
    The value of the symbols specified in the link definition are used to select the target workspace and filter its content. An example is a link from a row in a view that includes the Process Name, and the value of Process Name is passed to the target workspace. The view whose symbol was targeted will show information about that particular process.
  3. If the target workspace does not display what you expected or a Target not found message is displayed, edit the link.
    Tip: If you were prompted to select the target workspace but wanted the link definition to be specific so you would not have to choose from a list, do one of two things: If you had chosen Relative as the link type, define a new link and select a link type of Absolute; or make it Dynamic and supply the expression in the target filter to target the specific workspace.
