A table in XSDB is a document containing a data schema and a list of separate records.

The independence of each record is a key difference from traditional spreadsheets, where data is stored in an array of cells with their own addresses.

The data schema describes the set of columns and the nature of the data within them.

More about columns and parameters.

Data in records can be dependent on other records. For this, two types of variables are used in formulas: Join and Look back.

Modified records in the table are displayed in yellow. Such records become immune to filters and search and are always displayed. This behavior is used to maintain visibility of modified records so they don't disappear immediately if they no longer match the filter or search criteria.

When performing a search, the Ignore other filters parameter is enabled by default to search across all records. To search within the current filter, disable this parameter.

Flows and dashboards can be linked to a table. To do this, go to the Linked documents section in the table settings.

Linked flows can be run when viewing the table, and linked dashboards can be navigated to.
