For each content item you create, for example BlogPosts, there are default fields, such as author and title. You can add custom fields that extend the information that the content item holds. You can also add a custom field of type Related data, for example, News. Thus, you can relate other content items to the BlogPosts item via the related data custom field.
In the following example, you add programmatically the News custom field as related data to the BlogPosts content item:
In the AddRelatedDataFieldToContext method above, you:
