Dear Community,

is there an option to create a link to a position of my choice within a note, in order to link that position to another note?  
I know that notes themselves are "linkable" by copying the markdown-link, but i wasn't able to find a solution to my problem described above.

Thank you for your help!

You can modify a link to point to a header within the target note.

Say the Markdown link to your target note is `[Important Long Process Doc](:/e71ae2735f23416080fdaf1dac5719e1)`. Also in that target note you have a header such as `## Summary` or `### Shutdown Procedure`.

You can link directly to those headers using:

`[Important Long Process Doc](:/e71ae2735f23416080fdaf1dac5719e1#Summary)` or  
`[Important Long Process Doc](:/e71ae2735f23416080fdaf1dac5719e1#Shutdown-Procedure)` (note that a hyphen replaces a space)
