## Source data source and result field
Links are shown in Explore visualizations for the results from the correlation’s source data source. A link is assigned to one of the fields from the result provided in the correlation configuration (the results field).

### Correlation Variables
You can use variables inside the target query to access the source data related to the query. Correlations use [Grafana variable syntax]({{< relref "/docs/grafana/latest/dashboards/variables/variable-syntax" >}}).

Variables are filled with values from the source results when the link is clicked. There are two types of variables you can use:
- [field variables]({{< relref "/docs/grafana/latest/panels-visualizations/configure-data-links#field-variables" >}}) (allows to access field values and labels)

Example: If source results contain a field called “employee”, the value of the field can be accessed with:
