# Records

**Where:** Database → Collections → collection · `/projects/<project>/db/collections/<collection>/records`

Open a collection to work with its **records**. The page header shows the collection name with its published schema version — for example **Employees (v2)**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Screenshot TODO — capture comes from testing-plan area **03-database-collections**.
{% endhint %}

## What you can do here

* **Browse** — the grid shows the columns chosen on the schema's **List** tab (all schema fields when nothing was chosen). **Previous / Next** page through the records with cursors, 10 per page.
* **Sort** — click a column header to switch between ascending and descending; a sort change jumps back to page one. Without a click, the **List** tab's default sort applies; without that, the newest records come first.
* **Add New** — opens the record form generated from the schema (see [Add Records](/cloud/database/collections/add-records.md)). The button is disabled while the schema is still a draft: the page then shows the warning *Schema not published yet* with an **Edit schema** button, because records can only be added after **Save & publish**.
* **Edit / Delete…** — each row has an Edit link to the record form and a Delete link with a confirmation dialog.
* **Schema** split button — jumps straight into the schema editor's tabs: **Schema**, **List**, **Triggers**, **Settings**.

An empty published collection shows the note *No records yet — use Add New to create the first record.*
