You can create a data card to save a summary of a specific record as a content item. To create a data card, you can start from any view—knowledge graph view, maps, and link charts—as well as the global search.
Entity data card
An entity data card summarizes the properties and connected records of an entity 
.
The display expression and entity type are displayed at the top of the Record View. For example, if the type of entity represents a company, the display expression might show the company's name.
The Overview tab in the Record View is selected by default and shows a preview of the entity’s properties and relationships. The one-hop neighbor link chart displays the entity and its relationships. If the entity is spatial and has a geometry, a map of the entity’s location is displayed.
- Click Preview Map to show a preview of the spatial location.
Click the Properties tab or View all properties in the Overview tab.
All properties of the selected entity are listed. For example, an entity of type Company might have properties such as company name, and the year it was established. Property names appear in the Names column, the property's data type appears in the Type column, and property values appear in the Values column. If the year it was established is unknown and a value has not been set for this property, <Null> appears in the Values column.
Click the Relationships tab or View all Relationships in the Overview tab.
All relationships defined between the selected item and other entities in the knowledge graph are listed. Each relationship's type appears in the Relationship column. The entity with which the selected item is associated is shown in the Entity column.
For example, if the selected entity is of type Company, it might have a relationship such as WorksFor. An expression identifying the employee entity will appear in the Name column.
Similarly, if the selected entity has the type Company, it might have multiple WorksFor relationships listed in various rows, where each row identifies an employee. An expression identifying each Person entity will appear in the Name column of the appropriate row.
You can navigate to connected relationships and entities through the relationships table in the data card.

The selected record opens in the knowledge graph view.
