tied in

Made a connection

Tied in describes something connected or linked to something else, often as part of a coordinated whole.

A product tied in with a movie release is designed to complement or promote it.

Events or facts that tie in fit together coherently: Her alibi doesn't tie in with the evidence.

The phrase often suggests strategic coordination rather than coincidence.
