Extending link component
The link component feature stores associations that provide a comprehensive view of entities and nonentities. For example, a relationship type of association displays all related person entities. Extend the link component to cover newly created processes.
In Dev Studio, in an activity that saves association records, call the SaveLink activity of the PegaPS class. For example, in the SaveBranches activity in the PegsPS-Data-Entity-Business class.
