Create Record

Tables consist of individual records, in other words, rows that you can easily add, edit or delete.

How to add a new record to the table

In order to add a new record to the table, import your excel or you can start from scratch by creating a new table and filling it in with data by clicking on "+Add new record".

In the main menu above your data, you can find these options:

Add - add a new record to your table.
Edit - edit your records whenever needed. Click on the record you want to edit and select this option (you can also click twice on the selected record).
Delete - to delete a record, select it and click the "Delete" icon. If you want to delete multiple records, use the Ctrl or Shift keyboard shortcuts.

Note: The newly added record will be visible in the table, but it may be affected by filters or active views (e.g. not shown immediately if sorting or filtering excludes it).

Edit your data directly in the table

Did you know that in Tabidoo you can directly edit your records as you know it from Excel?

You have two main options to edit existing records:

Using the Form

Double-click a record or use the Edit icon to open the form.
All validation rules, field settings, and business logic apply.
Recommended for complex records or when accuracy is essential.

Using Inline Edit

Inline edit allows you to edit values directly in the table view, similar to a spreadsheet.

Advantages:

Quick updates
Great for editing multiple rows manually

Limitations:

Some field types (e.g. files, multi-selects) may not be editable inline
No validation or form logic is applied

Inline editing must be explicitly enabled in the table settings. Learn how to enable it: Inline Edit Documentation
