Connections

Link people to the people they know, like family or coworkers.

On this page

A connection says how two people know each other: Ana is Ben's sister, Chen is Dev's manager. It shows on both their pages, under Connections.

Connect: Tom Brennan chosen as Maya Okafor’s direct report, with both ways round below

Connect two people

  1. Open one of them and press C (from any tab).
  2. Under Person, type a name and choose them. Someone new? Choose Add “…” as a new person and they're added when you save.
  3. Under Relationship, choose what they are to the person whose page you're on. Type in the filter to find one: "mum" finds Parent, "boss" finds Manager.
  4. Add a Note if it helps ("at Acme, 2019–2022").
  5. Choose Connect (⌘↵).

Nifty works out the other side for you. Below the choices it shows both ways round, so you can check: "Tom Brennan is Maya Okafor's direct report. Maya Okafor is Tom Brennan's manager."

See someone's connections

The Connections tab shows their people as faces under Family, Social, Work and Others, each with their role and, under it, the connection's note (a long one is cut short: Edit… shows it all). Choose a face to open that person.

Change or remove a connection

Choose ⋯ on the face, then Edit… or Remove…. Removing a connection keeps both people; only the link between them goes.

Tip:

How someone relates to you is set separately, under Relationship to you on their page. See People.
