The relationship allows you to link records that have a relation between them. This is particularly helpful when you have multiple tables of related items or concepts. For example, if you have a table of products and a table of categories, you can use a related field to link each product to the category to that they belong.
There are two main types of relationships in Kozmik, single and multiple relationships.
This means that one record has a relationship with multiple other records in a different Table. For example, a single product can have a single category.
This means that records from both tables can link to multiple records from another table. For example, it's possible that a single product can have multiple categories.
The Lookup allows you to pull record contents of the linked record into a new column through the relation column. For example, let's say you want to see the description of a category on the Product Detail screen. To do this, you must first add a relation column that uses the Category table on the Product table. Then, you can add a Lookup column using this relation for the description field.
