❓ What are Database Views?

In your database, you can search, filter, and sort your records to view exactly the data you’re looking for. Database Views allow you to save those settings in a view for easy access or sharing.

Linking to records

When a table has a relation to another table, the relation’s value links straight to the related record’s card — click it to jump to that record instead of looking it up manually. Record cards are also individually addressable. Opening a record’s card from the spreadsheet view puts query parameters identifying that record in the page URL, so you can copy it from your browser’s address bar to bookmark a record or share a link that opens straight to it.
Some complex data types, like filtering by arrays, is not currently possible. If you’re trying to filter something and not receiving the expected results, please reach out to support or use a function stack instead.
