enable Delete related table records in edit widget

i'm using the edit widget in experience builder with feature layers you can select if you want to be able to Add / Update / Delete

, but i can't see any way to do the same for a table, they don't even show in the list

If the related table does have a relationship with the layer, and the editing form has been configured with a related table field, the related table will display and you can add/update/delete its records.

Hi @Allen_Zhang thanks for that, it does show the relationship and when i try to edit it i can add / update / delete but that is because i am the data owner, any one else who tries it just has the ability to add/update

the feature service has all three enabled, i just cant see anywhere to enable delete against the table

A related table's updating/deleting privileges follow its related layer's privileges, just like Map Viewer.

Adding related records is always available regardless of the layer's setting.

Is your layer's deleting privilege turned off?

Is your layer's deleting privilege turned off?

yea i believe it is but i can't find anywhere to enable it, "tables" do not appear in the same way as layers within the edit widget

The related tables will follow their related layers' updating/deleting privileges.

If you turn on the layer's delete, the related table can delete records too.
