3. Data browser shows that org's data

## Seeding Data

Populate your database with test data:

1. Go to the **Admin** tab

3. Choose a profile:
   * **Minimal** - Just enough to test
   * **Realistic** - Full sample dataset
   * **Stress Test** - Large volume for performance testing
4. Click **Seed**

<Warning>
  Seeding adds data—it doesn't clear existing records. Run on empty databases or be prepared for duplicates.
</Warning>
