Is there a way to create an automatic list of all the links in an InDesign document?

One that would exist in the same document and update as links are placed / deleted?

If you want to have the list to be updated then maybe a script could solve this for you. Indesign can’t do that by itself. There are many InDesign-Script-Developers who could probably come up with a solution for this.
