🗄️Tables (Data Studio)
Browse, connect, and manage your data in Dapta. Create your own DaptaDB database, link tables from databases you already have, view and edit records, and manage each table's fields and settings.
Tables is where all the data in your workspace lives. Go to Data Studio → Tables to browse your data sources, open any table to work with its records, and manage its fields and settings — whether the data lives in a database Dapta manages for you (DaptaDB) or in a database you already have.
Explore your data sources
The Tables page lists every data source in your workspace. Expand a source to see its schemas and tables, or use the search bar to jump straight to a table by name.
Click any table to open it full screen, with two tabs:
Records — view, search, create, and edit the table's data.
Settings — the table's name, description, fields, and advanced options.
Create your own database (DaptaDB)
If you don't have a database yet, Dapta can host one for you.
Click New in the top-right corner and choose New DaptaDB database.
Name your database and create your first table with its columns.
Your database appears in the explorer immediately, ready to store data.
To add more tables later, open the ⋮ menu on your DaptaDB database and choose New table.
DaptaDB is a real database managed by Dapta — anything your agents and flows write to it is stored there, and you can browse it all from Tables.
Connect a database you already have
Click New → Connect data source.
Pick your database type (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MongoDB, or an API) and enter its connection details.
Choose which tables to bring into Dapta.
Dapta never modifies the structure of a connected database — it reads your existing tables so you can use them across the platform.
Bring more existing tables into Dapta
Already connected a source but need another of its tables?
Expand the source in the explorer and click + Add at the bottom of its table list.
Search for the table you want and click Add.
The table opens immediately with its columns detected automatically.
Work with your data (Records)
The Records tab shows the table's data in a grid: search, sort, and filter any column, and use the toolbar to export or import CSV files.
To create a record, click New record, fill in the fields, and press Save.
To edit a record, click its row — the record opens in a side panel where you can update any editable field.
Table Settings
The Settings tab gathers everything about the table itself.
Name & description
Rename how the table appears in Dapta and add a short description so your team knows what it stores.
Fields
The Fields card lists the table's columns. From here you can:
Add field — create a new field. On DaptaDB tables this also creates the real column in your database; on connected databases you pick from columns that already exist.
Edit (✏️) — change a field's display name, type, and options.
Show/hide (👁) — control whether the field appears in the records grid.
Reorder — drag the handle on the left of each row; the grid columns follow this order.
Sync fields (connected databases only) — compare your fields against the real database and add new columns or remove ones that no longer exist, in one click.
Use the Simple / Advanced toggle to switch between friendly field types (Text, Number, Date…) and the technical view with each field's database reference.
On DaptaDB tables, field changes update the real column in your database. Deleting a field there permanently deletes the column and all its data — Dapta asks for confirmation before doing it.
Danger zone
At the bottom of Settings:
DaptaDB tables — rename the real table, or delete it permanently (table and data).
Connected tables — Unlink table removes it from Dapta. Your database is not modified, and you can add the table again anytime.
Next steps
Use your tables everywhere in Dapta: give agents access to them, read and write rows from Flow Studio, and power campaigns with your own data.
