# Lookup Fields

{% embed url="<https://support.airtable.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042312194-Lookup-field-overview>" %}

A lookup field allows you to pull record contents from one linked record into another linked record. As a reminder, linked relationships can be either within the same table or across two separate tables.
