# Related Entry in URL Format with Craft CMS Channel

How to set the url format of a Craft Channel to use an Entries field.

I have a current website build where I have 2 channels. One is for Photographers and the other is for photos. In the photos channel there is an entry field where you select the photographer. For this section I needed the url format to be:

`/photographers/firstName-Lastname/{slug}` where firstName-LastName was the slug of the related photographer entry. This is relatively simple to do, but how to is not available in the documentation. I found the solution on this [stack exchange thread](https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/a/23608/193).

In the code below replace fieldHandle with the handle of your related entries field.

```
<button class="absolute z-10 flex items-center justify-center w-8 h-8 -translate-y-1/2  -right-4 -top-4" clipboard="" title="Copy to Clipboard" to="" type="button" x-clipboard.raw="photographers/{fieldHandle.first().slug}/{slug}" x-data="">
