# Records

* A row of data stored in an entity is called a record.
* A record stores and displays information based on the data type in the defined fields.
* A record can be created directly in an Entity or added through other applications such as APIs, Processes, Flow components, and ETL pipelines.
* Each Entity displays the number of records created, Entity creation date, and modification date.&#x20;
* Users can copy an entity, delete an entire entity or only delete the records in an entity.
