What's a View?
In a table, you can use different views to display your data. You can show specific fields in a View. You can also apply Sorting or Filtering to the View. Each View is independent, which means the configuration applying to View 1 will not apply to View 2.
To navigate different views, we can select the target one in the view sidebar. By default, Grid View will be created for you after creating the table.You can create multiple views with the same type as you wish, as long as they have unique View names.
View Types
Grid View
Grid View, as a default type of view, allows you to display your data in a spreadsheet-like interface.
Form View
Form View allows you to arrange fields in a form to input data.
You can show and hide some fields using drag-and-drop fashion.
Gallery View
Gallery View allows you to display images as thumbnails with other fields just like a gallery.
View Permission Types
We can apply permission to each View. By default, Collaborative Views will be used. To see or change the view type, check the first icon above the View sidebar.
