# TypedLinkSpecifier


Contains all the information that is used to uniquely identify a typed link. The parameters discussed in this topic are used to uniquely specify the typed link being operated on. The [AttachTypedLink](API_AttachTypedLink.md) API returns a typed link specifier while the [DetachTypedLink](API_DetachTypedLink.md) API accepts one as input. Similarly, the [ListIncomingTypedLinks](API_ListIncomingTypedLinks.md) and [ListOutgoingTypedLinks](API_ListOutgoingTypedLinks.md) API operations provide typed link specifiers as output. You can also construct a typed link specifier from scratch.
