Items represent the individual entries or records within a collection (table) in your project. They are the core data points that populate the fields and structure defined by your collections. Each item corresponds to a row in a database table, with its values organized according to the fields (columns) specified in the collection.
Flexible Data Management: • Items can store a wide variety of data types, such as text, numbers, dates, files, and relationships. • Each item adheres to the schema defined by its collection fields.
Create, Edit, Delete: • You can add new items, edit existing ones, or delete items directly within the interface. • Changes are reflected immediately in your data model.
Field-Specific Input: • Input fields in the item editor are tailored based on the field types defined in the collection (e.g., text, number, date pickers).
Relationships: • Items can reference other items from related collections, supporting M2O, O2M, and M2M relationships.
Validation and Constraints: • Field-level validation ensures data integrity while creating or updating items.
Use Cases
• Dynamic Data: Manage dynamic content such as blog posts, user profiles, product listings, or orders.
• Relational Data: Link items across collections for more complex data models, such as connecting users to orders or cities to countries.
• Custom Operations: Extend functionality with custom fields, filters, and actions applied to items.
The Items section empowers users to manage the content and data stored in their project seamlessly, ensuring a structured and consistent approach to data handling.
