New Record Button - No Datatables

Hello,

In order to satisfy an interface requirement, I would need to set up a "Create New Record" form without showing the table content. What I need is just an empty page with a single button "Create New Request" that would open the request creation form.
Is there some way I can use the Editor to do this?

    Sure - listen for the 'click' event on your button and use the Editor `create` API method to show the create form. You'll need the DataTable created (since Editor currently requires a DataTable to exist), but you can easily just hide it using display:none .

    API docs:
