Application Builder configuration

The Application Builder in Baserow makes it easy to create custom applications that fit your unique requirements. With its intuitive interface design and streamlined data entry capabilities, you can enhance collaboration and efficiency in your projects.

Understanding configurations in Baserow empowers you to effectively organize, manage, and maintain your applications according to your preferences.

In this section, we’ll delve into key features including:

• Renaming applications
• Duplicating applications
• Creating snapshots
• Deleting applications

Rename an application

When you create your application, you can assign a name, which can be customized in this section.

The application name is for your reference and will not appear anywhere after publishing the application.

To rename an application:

• In the right sidebar, click the ⋮ icon next to an application.
• Select Rename and input a new name for the application.

Duplicate an application

Duplicating enables you to create copies of applications within your workspace. It’s useful for creating backups, testing new configurations, or maintaining multiple versions of your data.

If you need to make a copy of an existing application in its current state, hover over the application and click on the three-dot ⋮ icon next to the application.

Select the Duplicate option from the popup. You can view the application and application duplication progress in the left sidebar.

After duplicating the application, a copy will be created, and you can start editing. The copy will appear in the same workspace as the original one.

Snapshots

Snapshots are a full copy of your application at the moment when they were created. It allows you to save your current state whenever needed to be able to go back and resume from that state at any time in the future.

To create a snapshot, select the Snapshot option from the popup, and choose Snapshots. Learn more about snapshots.

After you take a snapshot, you can click on one of the previous snapshot versions and restore it. A duplication of that data will be created when restoring.

Snapshots are automatically deleted after one year.

Delete an application

You have the option of deleting any of the applications with the workspace. Deleting allows you to remove an application from your workspace. It helps in managing clutter and maintaining a clean and organized workspace.

To delete an application within your workspace, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the application you wish to delete.
2. Click on the Delete option in the application menu.
3. Confirm the deletion action in the dialog box that appears afterward.
