Create and Manage Pages

Build list, form, and custom pages from the Editor.

Pages control what people see at runtime.

A page reads from one source. It also defines fields and actions.

Before you start

• Create the source first.

• Add a few sample records.

That makes layouts and actions easier to validate.

Create a page

1

Create the page

Click New page within the Design section.

Pick a page type:

• Table for browsing rows.

• Form for create or edit flows.

2

Choose the source

Pick the source this page reads from.

If you picked the wrong source, change it now.

3

Pick fields and layout

Select the fields to show.

Order the fields in the sequence people scan.

4

Configure actions

Turn on the actions people need.

Common actions:

• Create: open a form to add a row.

• Edit: open a form for an existing row.

• Delete: remove a row.

Keep action labels short, ideally verbs.

5

Name and save

Give the page a name people will understand.

Examples:

• Tasks

• New task

• Task details

Click Save.

A good baseline is one list page + one form page per source. That covers browse + create/edit.

Edit an existing page

1

Select the page

Open Pages.

Click the page in the list.

2

Update what appears

Adjust fields, labels, and ordering.

If the page is a form, re-check required fields.

3

Update actions

Enable, disable, or rename actions.

Remove actions people shouldn’t have.

Use permissions for hard enforcement.

4

Save and preview

Click Save.

Open Preview / Runtime mode.

Run the primary task end-to-end.

Preview and test

Test like someone using the app.

Use realistic sample data.

Checklist:

• The list shows the right columns.

• Save returns to the expected place.

• Delete is hard to trigger by accident.

Tips that keep pages usable

• Keep each page focused on one job.

• Use consistent naming across pages.

• Put the most important field first.

• Hide rarely-used fields behind a details page.
