Hi everyone,

I’m new to org-roam and trying to migrate many large files over. Is it possible to get subheadings to automatically provide back-links to their respective headings without having to manually org-roam-insert-link?

My subheadings tend to always be directly relevant to the heading but manually inserting references to the major heading in each separate subheading seems like a poor way to do this.

In my org-roam file the following layout:

```auto
* Major heading
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: .....
:END:
** Subheading 1
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: .....
:END:
** Subheading 2
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: .....
:END: 

```

And get the following behavior in the graph:  
Major heading → subheading 1  
|  
v  
subheading 2

Thanks for any help
