About using linked models for inter-model communication

Use the methods in the linked model to send data from the primary model to the linked model or to retrieve data from the linked model.

When one model refers to another model by using a Linked Model builder, the first model can access the public methods of the linked-to model in the same way that it accesses its own methods.

Note: Other builders also create a linked model in the WebApp, for example, the Model Container builder. These other builders have the same effect.

The primary model invokes, either in an Action List or in a Method, the public method by specifying it as <Linked Model Name>.<Public Method Name>.

You can use the methods in the linked model to send data from the primary model to the linked model or to retrieve data from the linked model.
