List Settings: rows, layout and schema

Open the list's ⋯ menu in the header and choose List Settings... for three tabs: General (row permissions and in-cell enrichment), Layout (display options) and Schema (per-column type details). In General and Layout, click Save at the bottom of the tab; in Schema, click Apply Changes.

General tab#

• Allow adding rows — lets people add new rows to the list.
• Allow deleting rows — lets people delete rows; see "Hiding vs. deleting rows" for how that's different from hiding.
• Allow row reordering — lets people drag rows into a new order. It turns on automatically, and can't be switched off, while Allow adding rows is on.
• In-cell enrichment — shows a small wand icon when you hover an empty cell that can be filled by a lookup; clicking it fills just that one cell: instantly and free if the value is already known, otherwise it opens a small window listing the ways to fill it, cheapest first. Turn it off here to stop it appearing.

Adding, deleting and reordering rows#

Click New row in the status bar at the bottom of the grid to add one empty row. To reorder, drag a row by its first column — this only works when no column sort is currently applied. For deleting rows, see "Hiding vs. deleting rows."

Layout tab#

Alternate row colors (striped background for even/odd rows), Show company favicon (small icon next to company names) and Show photo URLs as images (renders a photo URL cell as a circular thumbnail instead of text).

Schema tab#

Click a column to expand its details: Title (the display name — see "Adding and managing columns" for renaming), a Required checkbox, Content Type and Data Type dropdowns, plus read-only details where they apply — a Value Format section showing the value patterns detected for that column, a lookup's option list, validation rules, and the AI's confidence score and reasoning from import. Click Apply Changes at the bottom to save any edits you made in this tab.
