Content & data

The app's content tools let you browse and edit everything in a site's database — both the content the site author manages and the data visitors submit — without touching code.

Browsing and editing

For each table you can list, view, and edit individual records. This is how a site owner keeps content current — updating a product, publishing an article, fixing a listing — and how you inspect the data a site is collecting.

Deleting and restoring

Deleted records can be restored within their recovery window, and you can see what depends on a record before removing it.

From the CLI

Runtime tables are also manageable from the command line with acira db — query, get, create, update, delete, restore, and export rows — which is handy for scripting and bulk work. See the CLI.

Content vs. code

Editing records changes a site's data, not its code. Structural changes — adding a field, changing a table's schema — are part of the site project and go out through a publish. Keeping the two straight avoids surprises: content edits are immediate; schema changes ship with a deployment.
