# Adding links to your slide layers

> You can add clickable links to other slides or external URLs to layers inside of your slides, which will be included in any export options from the plugin.

## Adding clickable links via the Pitchdeck plugin interface

### Adding links to other slides

To add a link to another slide on any child layer in a slide, you can click the **URL/Slide Links** tab, then hover over the child layer where you would like to attach a clickable link; then select the slide you would like to link to from the drop down menu.

To **remove** a slide link from any layer, ensure the dropdown option selected is set back to **Link to an external website URL**, and then ensure the URL text input field for that layer is also empty.

### Adding links to external URLs

To add external clickable URL to any child layer in a slide, you can click the **URL/Slide Links** tab, then hover over the child layer where you would like to attach a clickable link; ensure the dropdown option selected is **Link to an external website URL**, then paste any valid URL into the text input field.

To **remove** a URL link from any layer, you can delete the URL from the text input field for that layer.

> **Note:** **Email mailto: links are supported**. If you need to link to an email address (instead of a website URL), you can enter the format of **mailto:your@email.com** in the text input field, which will open an email link instead of a website.

## Adding clickable links for Interactive PDFs via native Figma Prototype links

As an alternative to using the built-in "Links" tab in Pitchdeck, you can also add links to elements in your slides via Figma's "Protoype" tab, where "On Click" links to another slide or a URL are supported in PDF exports from the Pitchdeck plugin.
