Data Types

Introduction

The Data section allows you to manage and structure all database elements essential to the template. To open it, click the database icon in the left panel of the Bubble Editor.

✨ Tip: To make the most out of your template and avoid issues while customizing data elements, it’s helpful to review Bubble's data management manuals:

• Working with Data

• Core Data Resources

Each data type includes built-in fields that are automatically created and managed by the system. These fields cannot be modified or deleted, as they are essential for tracking ownership and changes to the data:

• Creator: The user who created the entry.

• Creation Date: The timestamp indicating when the entry was created.

• Modified Date: The timestamp showing the last time the entry was updated.
