Introduction
Welcome to the first module of the Specialist: Records learning path!
Not every piece of data in your workflows needs to disappear after a story run. Some information needs to be stored, queried, and analyzed over time. Records in Tines provide structured, persistent data storage that bridges the gap between ephemeral workflow data and long-term insights.
In this module, you'll explore what records are, why they matter, and when to use them in your workflows.
Learning objectives
By the end of this module, you'll be able to:
Define what a record is, and explain its structure and purpose using real-world examples.
Identify specific business challenges that records solve, such as tracking security incidents or storing compliance data.
Evaluate and select appropriate use cases for implementing records based on your team's requirements.
