Text block

Content

The text block is Markdown on the canvas: instructions, section intros, checklists, links. On record pages it becomes dynamic — [Column]references render the current record's values inline.

Try it: Edit the record's Title value and watch the formula re-render the heading; change the alignment too.

Example. A text block on a record page. Its content is a formula, “## ” & [Title] & the rest of the Markdown, so the heading pulls the current record's Title field; the body is plain Markdown with a paragraph, a checklist, and a link. No card is drawn around it.

When to use it

  • Instructions and context around your data blocks — the difference between a screen and a tool.
  • Dynamic summaries on record pages: "# Order " & [Order number].
  • Link hubs pointing at other systems.

SettingWhat it does
ContentA formula producing the text — quote static Markdown and join record values with &, e.g. "## " & [Title] on record pages.
AlignmentText alignment inside the block.
Content blocks issue no data requests — a page full of text, images, and separators renders instantly. Templates are resolved from the record the page already loaded.

Like every block, this one also has the shared block settings: a title and optional description, a header you can show or hide, auto-height, conditional visibility, and role-based visibility.
