# Create DID-Linked Resources

**"DID-Linked Resources"** are identified with a [`did:cheqd` Decentralized Identifier](https://docs.cheqd.io/product/architecture/adr-list/adr-002-did-linked-resources) with a [Universally Unique Identifier (UUID)](https://www.uuidgenerator.net/) that acts as a permanently-accessible link to fetch the resources from the cheqd ledger. We refer to this as the "**resource ID**". Through the "**resource ID**" or a set of DID URL query parameters, applications are able to persistently access a digital resource on the cheqd network.
