# Navigate Linked Record § ¶

The Navigate Link Record operation enables you to obtain earlier or later link locations than the one you supply.

Anyone who has a link location on the blockchain and Event can use this service. 

The result will be a report which contains the following:

* Earlier link locations if requested and the supplied link location is not at the beginning
* Later link locations if requested and the supplied link location is not at the end
* An indication of whether the beginning or end of the linked locations has been reached

You can subsequently read the link records from the link locations that have been produced in the report.
