Links connect items from Procore tools to objects in a 3D model, so anyone navigating the model can review an item's details from the object. To learn how links differ from pins and which tools support each, see About Connected BIM.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions

  • Additional Information:

    • You can link one item to multiple objects by selecting them with Select Similar or View Properties. For example, link a single chair submittal to multiple seats.

    • You can link multiple items from the same tool to one object, but you must link each item in a separate action. For example, link electrical, mechanical, and fire/safety inspections to one Air Handling Unit.
