# Editing and deleting

> View a record, change it in the table or in its dialog, and delete one or many records.

<Note>
  Required permission:

  * View data source
  * Edit data source to edit, Delete data source to delete
</Note>

Each record has a **More actions** menu (**⋯**) at the end of its row.

<div align="center">

</div>

* **View**: open the record read-only.
* **Edit**: open the record in the **Edit \<data type>** dialog.
* **Delete**: delete the record.

## View a record

Click **View**. The **View \<data type>** dialog shows every field of the record, including the ones that aren't shown on the table.

<div align="center">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mileappv4/Zv-R0yz4NrNyQHzp/images/v4/workflow/data/data-source-view-record.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=Zv-R0yz4NrNyQHzp&q=85&s=4f103ce64e9cd28ae2d4e9740195b313" alt="View Customer dialog" width="600" data-path="images/v4/workflow/data/data-source-view-record.png" />
</div>

1. **Previous record** and **Next record**: step through the records of the list without closing the dialog.
2. **More information**: who created the record (**Created by**), and when it was created (**Created at**) and last changed (**Updated at**).

Relation fields show the linked records, including the records of other data types that point to this one. See [Linked records](/pages/workflow/data-source/linked-records).

## Edit a record

Click **Edit**, change the fields, and click **Save**. The web app says *Record updated*. The dialog is the same as when you [add a record](/pages/workflow/data-source/adding-records): the same fields, **Hubs** and **Limit Data by User**. If you close it with unsaved changes, the web app asks **Discard unsaved changes?**; click **Discard** or **Keep editing**.

### Edit a cell in the table

You can also change one value without opening the dialog. Click a cell in the table, type the new value, and press **Enter** or click elsewhere to save it. Press **Escape** to cancel. **Multi option** and **Relation** cells can only be changed in the **Edit** dialog.

To change many records at once, upload them again with [Bulk add and edit](/pages/workflow/data-source/bulk-add-and-edit): rows whose Title matches an existing record update it.

## Delete a record

Click **Delete** in the record's menu. The web app asks **Delete this record?**; click **Delete**. The record is removed permanently.

## Delete several records

Tick the records to delete. To select every record on the page, tick the box in the table header. The number selected shows above the table, for example *2 selected*.

</div>

1. **Delete selected**: the web app asks **Delete 2 records?** (with the number selected); click **Delete**.

Up to 3,000 records can be deleted at once. The web app then says how many were deleted, or, if some couldn't be, how many failed.
