title: Data links and actions options
|
|
comments: |
|
|
There are four data link shared files, datalink-options.md, datalink-options-1.md, datalink-options-2.md, and datalink-options-3.md to cover the most common combinations of options.

|
|
|
- **Title**

|
|
|
For each action, define the following API call settings:
