Add and change fields

Fields are a model's columns: what every record holds, such as a status, a due date or a link to a client.

  1. In Admin, open Data Models and click the model.
  2. Under Fields, click Add field.
  3. Enter a Label and pick a Type, such as Text, Date, Single select, Relation or Formula. You can't change the type later.
  4. Fill in the options the type asks for, such as the choices of a select or the Target of a relation. Tick Required if every record must have a value.
  5. Click Save.

The field appears in the record form and the column picker straight away.

Change or reorder a field

Open the field's … menu and choose Edit to change its label, description, options or whether it's required. Drag a field by its handle to move it.

Archive a field

Choose Archive from the field's menu and confirm. It disappears from forms and the column picker, but records keep their values. Unarchive brings it back. The title field can't be archived.

Speed up filtering on a large model

Choose Index this field from the field's menu. The index builds in the background; the field shows Indexed when it's ready.
