Editing Objects: A Step-by-Step Guide

Editing Objects: A Step-by-Step Guide

In the ever-evolving world of app development, the need to update or refine certain elements is inevitable. Fortunately, with Codeless ONE, editing your objects is a straightforward process.
Let’s delve into the steps:
Navigate to the App Model: From your App Workspace, click on the settings button located at the top left corner.
Dive into Application Settings: Within the dropdown menu, select ‘Application Settings‘.
Tap on the App Model : This is your gateway to the App schema, where you’ll find the Object Page ready for edits.

Making Edits on the Object Page

Once on the Object Page, you’ll spot a section to the left. This is where the characteristics of your object reside and where edits are made.
Object Name: Initially set during object creation, this identifier can be updated. Click into the text field, remove the old name, and key in your revised choice.
Label: This is the friendly face of your object, displaying its name in your App Workspace. Update it by entering a more fitting label if needed.
Icon: Visual cues matter. If you overlooked setting an icon or want to change the existing one, click on the dropdown to select a fitting representation.
Description: Adding context aids understanding. Give your users a clearer picture by drafting or updating a description in the provided text field.
Plural Label: When presenting multiple records, how should the object’s name appear? Codeless ONE typically showcases a pluralized version of the object name, but you can customize this. Simply enter your preferred term in the Plural label text field.

Saving Your Edits
