Working state

The working state is the editable current state of a base.

All changes to blocks, columns, entries, relations, and views land here first. It answers: What applies right now?

  • Locally you work on the working state on your device.
  • In team or cloud mode you can load the shared state and share your working state with Push.
  • Push updates the team state – but does not set a Baseline.
  • The working state is changeable.
  • A baseline is an immutable full state at a point in time.
  • Between two baselines (or since the last baseline), Baseline can show the business changes.

In the working state, work modes control what you may edit — with one shared data model and one block view:

  • Model — edit the schema; data entry locked
  • Maintain data — edit entries; schema panel hidden
  • Review — content check (Cloud only; see Review)
