View Overview
What Is a View?
A view is a configurable window for users to browse and manage worksheet data. It displays records according to user roles, filters, and display styles.
For example, in a Sales Leads worksheet, you can create views such as:
-
Based on lead status: New Leads, Qualified Leads
-
Based on lead owner: My Leads, My Team's Leads
Basic Components of a View

Display Style

-
Filter
Define conditions to show only the relevant records in the view.
-
Default Sorting
Set a default sorting order for records. Users can still click on column headers to sort manually.
-
Record Color
Use a single-select field to apply option colors to records for visual differentiation.

Display Fields
Sensitive or irrelevant fields can be hidden in the view. Hidden fields will not appear when users browse records in that view.
Note:
- Only App Admins can create views and control their visibility to regular users.
- Each worksheet must have at least one view. Deleting or modifying a view does not affect the underlying records.
