Follow this tutorial to learn how to import such relationships form the Getty ULAN. Between two agents, there are often relationships relevant to your research that you may want to document. For example, a curator can be associated with a museum and identified as the museum's employee. To help you capture these relationships effectively, you can import them from the Getty ULAN. ### 1.
