How to use model starters?

Starters on the landing screen are ready table structures with demo data. They are a structural scaffold, not a finished automation: fields and links are preset; you connect processes separately.

When you need this

  • You want a quick example: tasks, products with categories, office addresses.
  • You want to see associations between tables before designing your own.
  • You are new to Custom Data and need a field layout reference.

Key terms

  • Starters — block on New model (/templates).
  • Examples: Products and categories, User tasks, Office addresses (bundles may create several tables).
  • Starter badge — marks a template.
  • After save — View data with demo rows.

Before you start

  • Menu → Custom Data.
  • Correct bot selected.

Step-by-step

  1. Click Create table or open /templates.
  2. In Starters, pick a card (e.g. Products and categories).
  3. Follow Create table wizard:
    • Table name / Fields — review names and types.
    • Display — toggle Table / Card if needed.
    • Review — list of bundle tables.
  4. Click Save table.
  5. On the completion screen, open each table — View — and review demo records.
  6. Optionally Edit structure or replace demo rows after real import.

What happens next

One or more tables are created with demo data. They appear in Tables on the left; association fields are wired inside the bundle.

How to verify

  • Message Table "{name}" has been saved or bundle "{name}" is ready.
  • Demo rows visible in View data.
  • Linked tables (categories ↔ products) show labels, not only IDs.
