title: Create Relation Fields
|
|
description: Step-by-step guide to connecting objects with relation fields.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Relation fields connect records from different objects—for example, linking People to Companies.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
**Relation names cannot be changed after creation** (they affect the API). Plan your names carefully.
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Bevor Sie beginnen
|
|
|
|
Decide:
|
|
|
|
* Which objects are you connecting? (e.g., People → Companies)
|
|
* Which is the "one" side? (e.g., Company)
|
|
* Which is the "many" side? (e.g., People — many people work at one company)
|
|
* What should the field be named on each side?
|
|
|
|
See [Relation Fields](/l/de/user-guide/data-model/capabilities/relation-fields) for relation types explained.
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Go to **Settings → Data Model**
|
|
2. Select the object where you want the relation (typically the "many" side)
|
|
3. Click **+ Add Field**
|
|
4. Select **Relation** as the field type
|
|
5. Choose the **target object**
|
|
6. Select **One-to-Many** or **Many-to-One**
|
|
7. Enter field names for **both sides** of the relation
|
|
8. Klicken Sie auf **Speichern**
|
|
|
|
## Example: People → Companies
|
|
|
|
* Go to **Settings → Data Model → People**
|
|
* Add a Relation field
|
|
* Target: **Companies**
|
|
* Type: **Many-to-One**
|
|
* Field on People: **Company**
|
|
* Field on Companies: **Employees**
|
|
|
|
Now each Person can be linked to a Company, and each Company shows its People.
|
|
|
|
## Deleting a Relation
|
|
|
|
1. Go to **Settings → Data Model**
|
|
2. Find the relation field
|
|
3. Click **⋮ → Deactivate**
|
|
|
|
Links are preserved but hidden. Reactivate to restore.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
**Deleting a relation doesn't delete records.** Only the link between them is removed.
|
|
