Move to the next or previous page by clicking the arrows at the bottom of the table or by typing the page number to which you want to go.

Table Actions

Some tables allow actions like Add, Edit, Delete, etc. When these actions are available an “Actions” drop down will appear above the table.

Select the row(s) you want to perform the action on (if necessary) then open the drop down and select the action you want to perform.
Certain actions will be disabled if the number of selected rows is too many or too little to perform the action.
