Tables are a subset of workbook data elements.

Their spreadsheet-like interface allows for structuring and manipulation of data in a familiar environment. Tables support much of a traditional spreadsheet's functionality, like creating calculations and applying filters and formats. They also support a variety of other features such as data grouping and summaries.

Requirements

  • To create or edit a data element, you must have Can Edit access to the individual workbook.
  • Some exploratory actions are also supported with Can Explore access.

Create a Table

Tables and other data elements can be created via the PAGE ELEMENTS section of your workbook's editor panel or directly from an existing data element

When viewing, exploring, or editing a workbook, all data elements are minimized by default to display multiple elements in the canvas. You can maximize any data element to focus on its details and explore the underlying data. 

When a table is maximized, it expands to fill the entire workbook page. Unlike maximized visualizations and pivot tables, the underlying data doesn't need to be displayed in an additional table since it's already exposed in the table itself.

Note: Data elements can be maximized in any workbook mode (View, Explore, or Edit), but changes can be made in Explore and Edit modes only.
