CMS: Referencing Multiple Items in One Collection Field
1 min read
A reference field creates a connection between an item in one collection and an item in a different collection. A multiple items reference field is similar to a reference field, except it allows you to reference more than one item from another Collection.
Multiple item reference fields create a two-way connection between collections. This means that when you create a multiple-item reference field in collection A that points to collection B, a corresponding multiple-item reference field is automatically created in collection B that points to collection A.
