## Document & Subpage Links

With Craft you can easily create links to whole documents or individual subpages inside documents. This lets you create and share links that take people directly to what they need.

You can read more about sharing secret links in the [Sharing Documents](/en/share-and-publish/share) article.

## Link to a Craft Document or Block

You can link another document or block inside the same Space. This is really powerful when you want to reference another piece of information. There are three ways to do this:

### Using the @ Command

After typing **@** you will see a dropdown of options to link. Typing the first few characters will help you to find the block / page / document you are looking for. You can also create a new page with a link by typing a title not currently in this Space.

### Using the \[\[ Command

Typing **\[\[** will convert to **@**, and the same dropdown will appear.

### Selecting Text

Select the text and pick the **@** icon from the formatting toolbar.

## Backlinks

Backlinks show you all the blocks linked to the current document. You can use these to quickly navigate around your Space and see the connections between your documents and blocks.

* Backlinks are created automatically! Anytime you @-mention a document / block, a backlink will be added to the content that you linked.
* Backlinks appear at the bottom of the linked content under **Links To This Page**. If a document doesn't have any links, this section is not visible.

You can navigate quickly to the document or exact block where the link is located.

<Warning title="Important Note">
  You can move the linked block into any other documents with the drag & drop method to preserve the connection. However, a "cut & paste" action will delete the connection.
