# Links
## Linking New Objects
## Creating new links
### Link to another object in Anytype
You have 3 ways to link an object to another existing object:
1. Trough the canvas directly by either using:
1. **Block Links.** The slash character to invoke a command bar, and then looking for the link to object option in the menu.
1. Through the canvas directly by either using:
1. **Block Links.** Add the slash character ("/") to invoke a command bar, and then look for the link to object option in the menu.
2. **Inline Links**. The @ character to invoke the object picker menu.
2. Trough relations by using an object relation type and then going trough the same object picker menu.
2. Through relations by using an object relation type and then going through the same object picker menu.
### Link to external object on your device
If you want to add a link to an external object on your desktop, please use the links **starting with file:///** plus the local file destination. For example:
* file:///Users/Alex/Downloads/Protocol-Berg.pdf — to open PDFs;
* file:///Users/Alex/Downloads/my\_budget.xlsx — to open spreadsheets (Excel, Numbers).
To add such a link, pick up "Link to website" just like when you add a new link to a website.
