# External Link

The external link icon is represented by <img src="/files/pheGqgIqUxMq9CrAJXpC" alt="" data-size="line">. This icon can function in two different ways depending on its location:

1. **Next to the field label**: If the external link icon is located next to a field label, clicking on it will redirect you to the corresponding summary table. This table provides an overview of data related to that field.&#x20;

2. **Next to the field value**: If the external link icon is located next to a field value, clicking on it will redirect you to the specific record to view its details. This allows you to access more comprehensive and detailed information about that record.&#x20;
