Before reading this article, we highly recommend watching the above video and checking out our Item Details help article. It will really help you understand how this should all work.

One of the most powerful parts of Softr is being able to display not only individual details about a specific record, but also any other records that may be related to that specific record. For example, you may want to display a list of files, team members, or invoices related to a specific project. This is where Linked Lists come in.

Below we’ll look at a quick example using Projects and Tasks related to projects, but you can do this with any data type you can imagine.

As soon as you add the Tasks list to the project's details page, you'll see that the Projects table's fields will start appearing inside Conditional Filters of the Tasks list block.

Using this, we can now set a condition to filter the Tasks list to show only the tasks that are associated with the project that's currently opened in the page. The condition will be set as shown below.

So, only the tasks for which the value in the Project column corresponds to the current project's Name will be shown.

Let's check how that works for the Ad Campaign project that includes two tasks (assigned to steven@softr.io and joanne@softr.io).

That's it. Now, each project details page will also show all the tasks associated to it.
