Custom links allow users to display arbitrary hyperlinks to external content within NetBox object views. These are helpful for cross-referencing related records in systems outside NetBox. For example, you might create a custom link on the device view which links to the current device in a Network Monitoring System (NMS).
Custom links are created by navigating to Customization > Custom Links. Each link is associated with a particular NetBox object type (site, device, prefix, etc.) and will be displayed on relevant views. Each link has display text and a URL, and data from the NetBox item being viewed can be included in the link using [Jinja2 template code](https://jinja2docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) through the variable `obj`, and custom fields through `obj.cf`.

As another example, if you wanted to show only devices belonging to a certain manufacturer, you could do something like this:
