Use Fibery Lookups for Feature Context

Add a Lookup field to display a field from a related record. It exposes existing context without creating another editable relationship.

Before you start: Have Feature → Epic → Objective relations and configuration access. Each Feature in this example has a single Epic so its Objective is unambiguous.

Worked example: Invite audit belongs to the Access Epic, which belongs to Improve onboarding. A Feature-side lookup displays that Objective without maintaining a second direct relation.

Step-by-step guide

01

Check the relation path

Open the Feature and confirm its Epic, then the Epic’s Objective. Repair missing links before adding a display field.

02

Add the Lookup

On the Feature database or an entity, select + New Field → Lookup. Choose Epic in the Relation selector.

03

Choose the source field

Select Objective from Epic and save. Give the lookup a name that distinguishes it from an editable direct relation.

04

Verify the example

Open Invite audit and check Improve onboarding appears. Change the source Epic’s Objective on a sample case and inspect the resulting display.

05

Check the reader’s context

Test a normal collaborator’s access, especially for Rich Text source fields. A lookup is not a substitute for deliberate source permissions.

Common mistakes

Editing a lookup as if it were a relation

Lookups are read-only. Change the underlying relationship or source field instead.

  1. We save what you typed. No AI runs on this page.
  2. You create a free account.
  3. Vantage builds a PRD from it inside your own workspace.

Why ask for an account? We’re a small team, and a full generation runs a multi-step AI pipeline that costs us real money. So we tie it to a free account instead of running it anonymously. You also get to keep the result and edit it.
