Tenant design
Data schema, views, workflows and actions — where a tenant's applications are built.
A tenant's applications are built on the design screens: the data schema (entity, field, relation, data type), views and workflows, action definitions and application runtimes.
This section has the guides to the Metadata Designer, Workflow & EntityView Designer and Action & Application Runtime Designer screens. These screens work in the selected tenant and need the related key to design (metadata.write, application.write).
An application opens only with a published version; a workspace edited in draft does not appear on the tenant applications screen. Remember to publish to see what you designed.

- How-toChange what an entity inherits fromIn the Metadata Designer, Change inheritance on a parent link starts from what you mean: it was linked by mistake, it should inherit from another entity, it should keep the fields but stop inheriting, or it should stop from today with its history kept. Before anything changes, the screen counts what depends on the link.
