Guide
**Records** is the Explorer's table view: one type at a time, searchable and sortable, with every record's links and where it came from. An entity's page gathers everything the load knows about one record. ## Read a type as a table In the Explorer, select **Records**. Choose a type at the top; the count beside it is how many records the load holds. Records showing the Customer type as a table with currency and email columns * **Search** finds records by name or key. * **Filter by field** keeps the records whose field matches a value. * Select a column's header to sort by it, and **Columns** to choose which show. * Pages hold 50 records. Searches and filters count up to 1,000 matches, and paging reaches the first 10,000 records of a type. ## Open a record Select a row to open the record beside the table: its properties, its links to other records, and **Where it comes from**. A link or record that came from a table names the source and row; one that came from a document shows the quote, with a link to it in the document. The Globex Corporation record with its properties, billed_to and signed_with links, and its Stripe row and contract quote Select **Open in graph** to find it in the Explorer, or **Open its page** for the entity's page. ## An entity's page An entity's page names the record's type, key and sources, with tabs for its **Overview** (properties), **Facts** (its links, with their evidence), **Mentions** (where documents name it) and **Needs review**. Globex Corporation's page with its key, sources and properties Every page here reads one load. Use the **Load** picker to read another; links between pages keep it. ## Next steps Search, expand and compare loads. Add the documents facts and mentions come from.
