Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to managing content item syndication by maintaining referential integrity between isolated systems. A computing device receives a first content item, wherein the first content item has an external dependency with a second content item defined by a first reference. In response to determining that the second content item does not exist on the computing device, the computing device generates a second reference to replace the first reference, wherein the second reference defines a dependency of the first content item to a third content item. The computing device generates a link that directs a user to the third content item in response to the user attempting to access the second content item.
