# Linked Node Customization

> The linked node in the Altoura Experience System represents a variable for another Experience. This node can be anywhere in an Experience and can help in making Experiences with repetitive steps. The app user will not be able to tell the difference between steps in a linked Experience and steps in the parent Experience.

<Warning>
  ### Linking Limitations

  The current the limitations in the first release of this features is as follows:

  * you cant link the same experience twice in an experience
  * all of the references of the experience you linked have to be available in the content of the parent experience to work
</Warning>

### Node Definition

**Name** – The text value to title the step in the Experience Builder. This is only visible within the builder to organize and identify your nodes.

**ID** – The unique number value that identifies your node. This number is displayed at the bottom of the step display panel if there is one and can be used in Altoura as a debug method to search for a specific node in the portal. This value is generated by the database and cannot be changed.
