Edit records

A record is one item in a table. The same record can appear as a Grid row, a Gallery card, or an item in another view.

Change a value

1. Select a cell in Grid.
2. Press Enter or double-click to edit.
3. Enter the new value and commit the edit.
4. Check the updated value.

Press Escape to cancel the current cell edit. Use Tab and Shift + Tab to move between cells. You cannot edit calculated fields like Formula or Lookup directly. Change the source input fields instead.

Add a record

Select Add record, or press Cmd + Enter on macOS and Ctrl + Enter on Windows/Linux in Grid. Enter a recognizable name in the Record Label Field.

If a new record does not appear in the current view, check the view filters. The new record may not match the active filter rules.

Paste a block of cells

Copy rows and columns from a spreadsheet. Select the destination cell in Grid and paste the clipboard contents. Check that the columns align properly. Check that dates and numbers parse accurately. For a complete dataset, use CSV import.

Open record details

Use the row expand control to open the record detail modal. This modal provides more space for long text fields, relations, and attachments.

Link to another record

1. Open a Relation cell.
2. Search for a record in the target table.
3. Select the record to link it.

The relation stores the target row ID. The shown label comes from the target table’s Record Label Field. Renaming that label does not break the stored relation.

Add attachments

Use a File field to add an attachment. Available import and preview features depend on the host application. When you copy or move the file, include referenced local attachments. See data storage.

Undo an edit

Press Cmd + Z on macOS or Ctrl + Z on Windows/Linux to undo recent edits. Check the result after you undo an action. For older saved states, use Versions. Undo is not a substitute for regular backups.
