Link fields
Link fields create relationships between boards. When you link Board A to Board B:
•A link field is created in Board A
•A reciprocal link field is automatically created in Board B
•You can then add Lookup and Rollup fields to pull or aggregate data across the link
Link fields work between boards in the same base. To link to a board in another base, first create a synced copy of it.
Lookup and Rollup fields
Lookup fields pull specific field values from linked records. If Board A links to Board B, a lookup on Board A can display any field from the linked Board B records.
Rollup fields aggregate values from linked records. Common rollup functions:
•SUM — Total of numeric values
•COUNT — Number of linked records
•AVG — Average of numeric values
•MIN / MAX — Minimum or maximum value
•CONCAT — Join text values together
Field settings
Each field can be configured with:
•Name — The column header displayed in the grid
•Description — Help text shown on hover
•Required — Whether the field must have a value
•Default value — Pre-filled value for new records
•Field-specific options — Like number format, select options, linked board, etc.
To edit a field, click the dropdown arrow next to the field name in the grid header.
