linked-lookups

What problem does it solve?

Linked Lookups maintain bidirectional relationships between lookup fields across forms, ensuring updates propagate in real time and preserve referential integrity during submissions that cascade through defaults and auto-create entries.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Bidirectional synchronization across forms ensures that when a submitting entry references a target entry, the corresponding lookup on the target entry is updated to include the source.
• Synchronous processing with cascading updates and strict limits prevents runaway updates, supporting per-entry (1,000) and process-wide (10,000) operation caps, plus a 100-entry per-field limit with FIFO overflow.
• Tight integration with Auto-Create Entries allows cascading updates to occur within the same submission flow, affecting newly created entries as part of the same transaction.
• Supports multiple linked lookups per form and a centralized context (LinkedLookupSyncContext) to coordinate updates and batched persistence.

Quick Start

Configure a form with linked lookups, submit an entry referencing another entry, and observe bidirectional updates across both forms.
