# Object browser

# Object Browser

The Object Browser is where you work with the actual records in your schema. Select an object type from the left panel to see all its objects in a table view, create new objects, edit existing ones, and navigate relations between them.

Open a schema and click the **Browse** tab to enter the object browser.

## Browsing objects

The left panel lists all object types in the schema. Click any type to display its objects in the main table. Each column in the table corresponds to an attribute defined on that object type.

Use the **search bar** above the table to filter objects by their label or any text attribute value.

## Creating an object

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select the object type">
    In the left panel, click the object type you want to create a record for.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click + New Object">
    Click **+ New Object** in the top right of the table area.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fill in the attributes">
    A creation form opens with all attributes for this object type. Required attributes are marked with an asterisk. Fill in as many fields as you have information for.

    For **Relation** attributes, a picker appears showing existing objects of the target type. Search by label to find the right record and select it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create">
    Click **Create**. The object appears in the table immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Editing an object

Click any row in the table to open the object's full detail view. All attributes are displayed in an editable form. Click any field to edit it. Changes are saved automatically when you click away from the field.

## Object detail view

The detail view shows all information about a single object, organized in tabs:

### Attributes tab

All attribute fields for this object, editable in place.

### Relations tab

All objects linked to this object through relation attributes. Displayed as a list or as an interactive graph showing the connected objects and the types of connections between them.

* Click any related object in the list or graph to navigate to its own detail view.
* To add a new relation, edit the relation attribute in the Attributes tab and select a related object.

### Linked Tasks tab

If any project in the instance has a custom field of type **Registry Object** pointing to this object type, any tasks that reference this specific object appear here — across all projects and Spaces. This gives you a direct view of all the work connected to a registry record, regardless of where that work lives.

### Activity tab

A log of every change made to this object's attribute values, including the user who made the change and the timestamp.

## Searching and filtering

Use the **search bar** to filter objects by their label value or any text attribute value across the current object type.

For more precise filtering, click **Filters** above the table:

| Attribute type | Available filter conditions               |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| Text           | Contains, equals, starts with, is empty   |
| Number         | Equals, greater than, less than, is empty |
| Date           | Is, before, after, is empty               |
| Select         | Is any of, is none of                     |
| Checkbox       | Is true, is false                         |
| User           | Is any of                                 |
| Relation       | Is linked to                              |

Multiple filters are combined with AND logic — all conditions must be met for an object to appear.

## Deleting an object

<Warning>
  Deleting an object is permanent. It removes the object and all its field values, and unlinks it from any related objects. This cannot be undone.
</Warning>

To delete an object:

1. Open the object's detail view by clicking its row in the table.
2. Click the `...` menu at the top right of the detail view.
3. Select **Delete object**.
4. Confirm the deletion in the dialog that appears.

To delete multiple objects at once, check the boxes on the left of each row in the table, then click **Delete selected** in the action bar that appears.

## Exporting objects

To export all objects of the current type to a CSV file:

1. Select the object type in the left panel.
2. Click **Export → CSV** above the table.
3. The CSV downloads to your browser immediately.

The export includes all attribute columns and respects any active filters — filtered exports only include objects currently visible in the table.
