You can only link to the elements with a unique ID assigned.
Tip: If you link to elements by using the Content Editor, Heretto CCMS enables you to easily assign an automatically
generated ID or custom ID. You don't need to assign IDs to elements that you want to link
to firsthand.
You can assign IDs to elements before creating links to take
control over the ID values' naming convention and boost your documentation consistency. For
example, if multiple users collaborate on the same content, to ensure that the values are consistent, you can assign the
ID values beforehand.
Open a topic and place your cursor in the element for which you want to create an unique ID.
Click the Attributes tab.
In the id field enter a unique
ID.
Tip:
We recommend assigning an ID name related to the element so
it's easy to identify later.
Set the ID for a short description element as
sample_id
