Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices supporting data processing are described. In some systems, a user device may receive an indication to aviate an in-line view of a data record from a data platform that is external to a document editing client. A server running the document editing client may query the external data platform for a value of a field of the data record based on the received indication to activate the in-line view. The server, the user device, or both may cause the value to be displayed within the document editing client in an in-line position at which the indication to activate the in-line view is received.
