+**TIL: How to Set a Relationship on Golang Pocketbase**
+
+[Pocketbase](https://pocketbase.io/) is a backend as a service, it is very nice because it is written in Golang
+it can compile down to a single binary. It also allows us to extend it using Golang and use it as a framework.
+In my case, I needed some extra logic before adding data to the database so I decided to extend Pocketbase
+and write some of my business logic.
+
+Part of the code involved adding some entries to the Database including a relationship. However, I noticed that the relationship
+looked different in the Pocketbase GUI as compared with the ones I created using the Pocketbase client in the SvelteKit part of my app.
+
+The other relationships showed up a bit differently, they didn't include the id of the relationship (as a foreign key) but rather a field
+on the other collection. In the example below the relationship field I am referencing is the `bookmark_metadata`. Which uses the `title` field.
+
+![Bookmark](images/bookmark.png)
+
+Where the bookmark metadata may look like:
+
+![Bookmark Metadata](images/bookmark_metadata.png)
+
+We can achieve this using the following code:
+
+```golang {hl_lines=[2]}
+bookmarkRecord := models.NewRecord(collection)
+bookmarkRecord.Set("bookmark_metadata", []string{metadataRecord.Id})
+bookmarkRecord.Set("favourite", false)
+bookmarkRecord.Set("collection", collectionID)
+bookmarkRecord.Set("custom_order", math.MaxInt32)
+```
+
+The key being that we set `bookmark_metadata` as a slice (array).
+However, if we did:
+
+```golang {hl_lines=[2]}
+bookmarkRecord.Set("bookmark_metadata", metadataRecord.Id)
+```
+
+In the GUI the record would look like this:
+
+![Bookmark ID](images/bookmark_id.png)
+
+Both options will work for setting up a relationship between two collections. I just wanted to show you how you can set it
+so it shows up like relationship created via the JS SDK. You can read more about creating records with Golang
+[here](https://pocketbase.io/docs/record-methods/#create-new-record).
