# Input Link

You can link a Child Cue to a Parent Cue so it runs as soon as an input switch is detected from a Stagehand FX. This can be handy if you have two cues that need to run in close proximity, but require a crew member to give a “Clear” signal for the second cue. In such a case, you could wire a pushbutton to the input of a Stagehand FX. When the Parent Cue runs, the crew member would push the button to start the Child Cue when appropriate.

**Click** the **Add Link** button next to the Child Cue.

**Select** the **Parent Cue** from the drop-down list and select Input Link, then press OK.

The new link will appear above the cue it triggers. Select the Stagehand FX and the input that should trigger the Child Cue.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.creativeconners.com/docs/spikemark/cue-links/input-link.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
