Linking & references
AuroraDocs is built around connections between ideas. Links, block references, backlinks, and unlinked mentions all work together to build your knowledge graph.
Page links
Type @ followed by a page name to create an inline link. As you type, a picker shows matching pages. Select one to insert a link.
Hovering over a page link shows a preview card. Click the card header to open the page in a peek modal without leaving your current page.
Block references
Every block in AuroraDocs has a unique ID. You can reference any block from anywhere:
- Right-click a block and choose Copy block link.
- In any other page, type
((and paste the ID, or type part of the block's content to search. - The referenced block's content renders inline and updates live when the source changes.
Backlinks
Every page shows a Backlinks panel at the bottom listing all pages that link to it. Backlinks are bi-directional — link from page A to page B, and page B automatically shows page A in its backlinks.
Unlinked mentions
The backlinks panel also shows Unlinked mentions — places where your page's title appears as plain text without a link. Click Link next to any mention to convert it into a real backlink with one click.
Graph view
Open the graph view from the sidebar (⌘G) to see your entire workspace as a force-directed graph. Nodes are pages, edges are links. Click any node to navigate to that page.
Page embed (transclusion)
Use /embed or /page embed to embed an entire page inside another. The embedded content is live — editing the source page updates every embed automatically.
