Training: Browse Data with Data Explorer

What you'll learn: how to inspect any data model's records — fields, types, and audit metadata — without writing a query. You need: Administrator access type in an application (UI label "Tenant"). Time: 10 minutes.

Before you start

Data Explorer shows your application's data as an expandable tree: model → records → fields. It is the fastest way to verify that a screen, import, or flow actually wrote the data you expect.

Steps

  1. Go to Left menu → Data Management → Data Explorer. (Fallback: header Search → "Data Explorer".)
  2. Use the filter panel on the right to narrow the tree. The counts at the bottom (Tenants, Data Models, System vs Custom) show how much is in scope.
  3. Click the Data Models filter and type a model name (e.g. TrainingPart) → click the match. The tree now shows just that model.
  4. Expand the model node. A filter bar appears (field, operator, value — with + RULE and + GROUP for compound conditions) above the matching records.
  5. Expand a record. Every field shows with its typed value — strings, numbers (#), booleans — plus audit metadata: createdAt, createdByUser, updatedAt, dataChanges, and _customFields. Record expanded

Check your work

You can read the record's field values directly in the tree — for example name = Demo Widget, quantity = 10, active = true — and see who created it and when under createdByUser.

Try it yourself

Use the filter bar to find records where a field contains a value. Then look at Data Management → Enterprise Data Explorer — the same tree across every application you can access. Toggle System Models? on to inspect platform models like AccessControlPolicy.
