Where do I start?

As a builder, you build templates for your team to fill out.

On the navigation side bar, ensure that you are in .

Seal Types

Everything in Seal is a Type. Types are self contained blobs of JSON data that conform to our schema. The different Types in Seal enables a wide range of templates to be built.

Types in Seal:

• Objects

• Documents

• Work Done

• Files

• Automations

• Charts

• Custom

All types can have associated metadata fields, with each type potentially differing in page content and following a unique lifecycle.

Content Type

Content Type	Description
Page Content	Any information that exists on a page
Script code	Script
Chart	Visualisation
File	An uploaded file, e.g. a Word Document, PDF, Excel file
None	No document or page content

*What defines the Lifecycle of a Type?

All Types have a top level status field. There are two types of entity lifecycle that define the possible status values - continuous and completable. Different Types may follow distinct lifecycles based on their purpose and workflow.

Completable

Completable lifecycles represent a discrete piece of work carried out at a specific time, and therefore are usually not modified once they've been finished. If mistakes are identified, you can make a new revision of the completable entity. The stages are:

Active → Done → In Revision → Revised &#xNAN;Continuous

Continuous lifecycles are designed to be reused and improved over time. Continuous entities have numbered versions - the version number increases every time you publish a new version. The stages are:

Version 1 → Draft → In review → Version 2

View all Types within your Platform in the settings modal, under the 'Types' tab.
