Editing a Data storage

Now that you know what purpose Data storage serves and how to create one, let's go through the steps required to edit your Data storage.

There are a couple of things you can do with Data storage:

  • rename Data storage,

  • delete Data storage,

  • create or store a new item in Data storage,

  • delete items from Data storage,

  • clear Data storage.

Some of the actions can be executed in the Storage tab, others in the flow builder. Alternatively, you can edit Data storage via API.

To give you a full context, let's see at all the components that can be used in the flow builder.

OnItemAdded This trigger starts the flow when there is a new item added to a Data storage

OnItemRemoved This trigger starts the flow when there is an item removed from a Data storage

OnItemUpdated This trigger starts the flow when there is an item updated in a Data storage

Clear This action clears all data in a Data storage

Find This action finds an item in a Data store that can be used further in a flow

Get This action gets an item from a Data store to be used in a flow

Remove This action removes an item from a Data storage

Set This action sets a new item to a Data storage (being one of the ways to create new items in a Data storage)

Besides that, you can do some manual edits in the Storage tab like renaming or deleting Data storage.

Alternatively, you can edit Data storage via API. Read our technical documentation to find out more: https://docs.appmixer.com/appmixer/api/data-stores.

To see Data storage in action, let's read the next section and go through a pretty handy example.
