Creating a Record in a Component

Step 1: Click on the Model Card

In the Design Studio dashboard, click on the card representing the model you wish to edit. This will take you to the data model page for that particular model.

Step 2: Check for Existing Components

If the model already contains components, they will likely be pre-selected when you access the model's Data model page.

If the model is empty, you must create a component following the instructions provided in the link: How to Create a Component.

Step 3: Navigate Between Components (If Applicable)

If the model contains more than one component, you can navigate between these components by clicking on the corresponding component tabs, which are displayed at the top and side of the page.

Step 4: Add a Record

On the detailed Data model page, locate and click on the "Add Record" button.

Clicking the "Add Record" button will open a dialogue box where you can provide information about the record you want to create.

Step 5: Enter the Record Name

Within the dialogue box, you'll see a field labeled "Name". Enter a descriptive name for the record you wish to create within the data model.

Step 6: Review and Verify

Take a moment to review the record name you've entered to ensure accuracy.

Step 7: Click "Create"

Find the "Create" button within the dialogue box and click on it. Design Studio will process your request and generate a new record within the selected component of the model. Upon successful record creation, you will see the box with the blue border on the canvas.

You can continue adding more records to the same component or explore other features and options provided by the platform for data modeling and design.

Congratulations! You've successfully learned how to work with components and records in a model.
