# Query by Content Relationship
To query by a particular Content Relationship / Document link value, you must use the ID of the document you are looking for.
> **You must use the document ID**
>
> Note that you must use the document ID to make this query. It does not work if you try to query using a UID value.
## By a Content Relationship field
The following example queries all the "blog_post" custom type documents with the "category_link" field (a Content Relationship) equal to the category document with the ID of "WNje3SUAAEGBu8bc".
```ruby
response = api.query([
Prismic::Predicates.at("document.type", "blog_post"),
Prismic::Predicates.at("my.blog_post.category_link", "WNje3SUAAEGBu8bc")]
)
# response contains the response object, response.results holds the documents
```
## By a Content Relationship field in a Group
If your Content Relationship field is inside a group, you just need to specify the Group, then the Content Relationship field.
Here is an example that queries all the "blog_post" custom type documents with the "category_link" field (a Content Relationship) equal to the category with a document ID of "WNje3SUAAEGBu8bc". In this case, the Content Relationship field is inside a Group field with the API ID of "categories".
```ruby
response = api.query([
Prismic::Predicates.at("document.type", "blog_post"),
Prismic::Predicates.at("my.blog_post.categories.category_link", "WNje3SUAAEGBu8bc")]
)
# response contains the response object, response.results holds the documents
```
