How can I update/modify the sample records generated for a data type in blueprint?
I am working on a blueprint and have a data type with local records, blueprint generated some sample records but I would like to update those to be more relevant for the business team to review , am i missing something on how to do this?

When you do the preview my app, you can access the records manager using the link at the bottom of the left panel.
I attached an image to this reply that shows the link.

@ChrisBoone Thanks ! Never realized that was there. I just went to it and tried to update a record but didn't have any luck. Tried to add in the grid (couldn't find a way) and tried to edit an individual record but couldn't either.

@APAPM1 the records pertaining to the Application Data Model (and displayed in the Records Manager landing page) are fully GenAI based - from Blueprint to App Studio upon import.
As of today, you can only edit records in the Data Model directly in App Studio after you had imported your Hi-Fi Blueprint.
However, you have provided a great idea to enhance further the '+ Import data definition' feature from Data & Integrations step. As we can enhance the SQL with not only DDL but also DML to store real records; and enhance the model to interpret Examples from OpenAPI YAML for mock servers.
I'll present this idea to the Product team :)

@PauloToninThanks for confirming - i was trying to adjust to make my walkthrough with the business more relavant to them but couldn't figure out how to get the sample records updated.
Would be a great enhancement for blueprint so more can be configured before import to app studio.
Thanks

Ok, here is how you can do it. On your data class, take the primary field and define it like:
Temporary listing of names for selection, values include: Bob, Wilma, Fred, Barney, Bam Bam, Pebbles
If you are updating an existing property, you may need to refresh your blueprint screen. Return to your preview, open the records manager for the class and see if your list got updated.
If you supply more than 5 items, it will choose up to 5 to display.
