Records & Lists

Records & Lists owns live Records, their history, and the collections and views used to select work.

Records & Lists owns live data and the collections people use to work with it. Start here to inspect values, gather Records, or save a view.

Boundary

Records & Lists stores values under the kinds that Company Schema declares. A List gathers Records without defining their shape. A View changes how you read them without changing their values. Data Pipelines owns imports and their lineage. Membership in a List does not replace that origin or grant access to a Record.

Services

Records & Lists separates a Record's values from membership and presentation. Choose the service by the change you want to make, so a saved display does not stand in for a shared work target.

Start here

Records & Lists opens Records at /records and All Lists at /lists in the Console. Import and target records connects an imported Record to its origin and a List. For a known Record, entities.get reads its current values with access rules applied. Use the returned Record to check a write before acting on it again.
