Record block
Data view
The record block displays one record's fields — the centerpiece of a record detail page. Fields sit on a four-unit grid so you control each one's width, any field can be made editable in place, and an action bar sits above the fields.
When to use it
- The detail page a table, card, or list row opens into.
- Profile-style layouts: wide notes field, half-width contact fields side by side.
- Quick-edit surfaces — mark the fields that change often as editable.
Settings
| Setting | Options | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Fields | — | Which fields render, in which order (drag to reorder). |
| Field widths | 1–4 units | Per-field width on the record block's 4-unit grid — two 2-unit fields share a row, a 4-unit field spans it. |
| Editable fields | — | Fields rendered as inline inputs. Edits save automatically after a short pause, gated by the viewer's update permission. |
| Reference quick-create | per field | Editable reference fields offer an “Add …” option that creates a row in the referenced table from the typed text. On by default; disable it per field. |
| Actions | — | Action buttons rendered in a bar above the fields. |
| Actions alignment | left / center / right | Where the action bar sits. Defaults to right. |
Record pages give every block context
On a record page, other data blocks can reference the current record with
RECORD[Field] filters — put a record block at the top and a filtered table of related rows below it. See Expressions.Like every block, this one also has the shared block settings: a title and optional description, a header you can show or hide, auto-height, conditional visibility, and role-based visibility, plus the source table and record-filter settings shared by all data blocks.
