Orbital Forms

Lay out how records get edited.

Design form templates for each database type - multi-column layouts, grouped fields, and multiple forms per record - so metadata editing stays clear as your schema grows.

Why it matters

A single column doesn't scale

Types with dozens of fields need grouped sections and side-by-side layout - not one endless scroll of inputs.

Forms are separate from fields

Your schema defines what can be stored. Form templates define how those fields are arranged for editing on every record.

Multiple forms per type

Keep a default Details form for everyday edits, then add focused templates - onboarding intake, compliance review, or field-team capture.

What you can do

  • Visual form designer in database settings
  • Row and column layouts with field blocks
  • Default Details form plus custom form templates
  • Dedicated Forms tab on every record
  • Schema-driven - forms reference your field definitions
