Hi want to have users being able to edit the records.  
But in almost all fields in my google sheet I use data validation. How can I use those data validation when users are editing a record?  
To add a record from scratch I can use choice fields to use those data validations, but for editing how can I use it?

Thanks,  
Joao

You can also add those choice components on the edit screen, if I understand what you mean.
