Documentation restructuring lineage

29 July 2026 — Customer documentation structure created

  • 03 Extended Objects.md
  • 04 Relations.md
  • 05 Traits.md
  • 07 Views and Filters.md
  • 08 Automations.md

  • Glossary.md
  • Changelog.md
  • inline Mermaid diagrams in every Markdown document;
  • editable .mmd diagram sources;
  • .svg diagram fallbacks.

Technical source moved

  • The former Object Model Guide and Technical Specification are retained under docs/technical/ for internal reference.
  • The customer-facing folder now contains plain-language chapters only.

Corrected terminology

  • retained Primary Object and Extended Object;
  • defined Properties as native data on an Object;
  • defined Shared Properties as originating from an Extended Object;
  • separated Traits from the data model;
  • defined Traits as behavioural aspects of Objects;
  • added the Analytics Trait;
  • clarified that both Primary and Extended Objects can have Traits;
  • clarified that Relations connect independent Records.
  • merged Activities into 05 Traits.md under the Activities section;
  • grouped Action, Message, Event, and Task under Activities for customer-facing guidance.

Canonical examples

  • Contact contains the Records John Smith and Jane Smith;
  • Customer and Reseller can coexist as extensions of one Contact;
  • Candidate morphs to Employee, then to Alumni;
  • Customer and Reseller can both have Table and Page;
  • Onboarding can have the Task Trait and be assigned to an Employee Record.

Removed or superseded

  • Main/Child terminology;
  • the assumption that Shared Properties are owned by the Primary Object;
  • old Trait names not present in the current Trait selector;
  • examples that combined Objects, Records, Extensions and Traits into one misleading hierarchy;
  • the claim that Traits are role records.

29 July 2026 — Customer-facing chapters completed

Updated the remaining chapters with plain-language guidance for:

  • creating and using Views and Filters;
  • creating, testing, and maintaining Automations;
  • Users, access responsibilities, and access reviews;
  • practical examples combining Objects, Properties, Extended Objects, Relations, Traits, Activities, Views, and Automations;
  • the customer-facing glossary.

Activities are documented within 05 Traits.md. The former standalone 06 Activities.md chapter was removed from the customer-facing structure.

29 July 2026 — Website menu structure

The customer documentation was reorganised into main-menu folders:

  • Data/ for Objects, Extended Objects, Relations, Traits, Activities, Views and Filters, and practical examples;
  • Automations/ for Scenarios and Nodes, based on the official Latenode documentation;
  • Users & Access/ for Users, Teams, Suites, Scopes, and Authorisations;
  • CMS/ for Structure, Components, and Settings;
  • Company Settings/ for company-wide configuration options.

The former Getting Started page was removed. Glossary and Changelog remain reference pages.

29 July 2026 — Latenode submenu expansion

The Automations menu was expanded from Scenarios and Nodes into nine customer-facing areas based on the Latenode sitemap:

  • Scenarios;
  • Nodes;
  • Integrations;
  • AI Agents;
  • Databases;
  • MCP Server;
  • Account Management;
  • Operators;
  • Data Flow.
