# API Workflow

The normal workflow for Linked Records follows this sequence of operations:

1. [Configure API](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/configure-api.md)
2. [Create Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/create-link-record.md)
3. [Get Link Location Status](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/get-link-location-status.md)
4. [Read Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/read-link-record.md) **\***
5. [Update Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/update-link-record.md) **\***
6. [Delete Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/delete-link-record.md) **\***
7. [Verify Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/verify-link-record-+.md) [**†**](/nchain-event/overview/configuration-symbols.md) **\***
8. [Navigate Link Record](/nchain-event/linked-records/api-workflow/navigate-link-record.md) [¶](/nchain-event/overview/configuration-symbols.md) **\***&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: **\*** Although these operations can be performed any time after creating a link record, they will only be reading from the blockchain after the record has been confirmed by Get Location Status.
{% endhint %}

These operations are described in more detail below.
