Browse, filter and edit table data in the data grid

Open a table, filter and sort its rows, and edit values in place. Every edit is held as a pending change until you commit it.

Open a table from the sidebar to see its rows in the data grid. Large tables are paged, with a page size you choose, so a table with millions of rows opens as quickly as a small one.
