These features are available on table pages, and edit and delete are also available as action items on the row page.\n\nThe inspiration for this feature - which is *long* overdue - was [Datasette Agent](https://agent.datasette.io/). I added [SQL write support](https://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/15/datasette-agent/) to that the other day which highlighted how absurd it was that you could insert and edit ties via the chat interface but not in the regular Datasette UI!\n\nTags: [projects](https://simonwillison.net/tags/projects), [datasette](https://simonwillison.net/tags/datasette), [annotated-release-notes](https://simonwillison.net/tags/annotated-release-notes)", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-1-0a34", "canonical_source": "https://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/16/datasette/#atom-everything", "published_at": "2026-06-16 21:31:24+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-17 17:22:07.206493+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["Datasette", "Datasette Agent", "Simon Willison"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-1-0a34", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-1-0a34.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-1-0a34.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/datasette-1-0a34.jsonld"}}
