Adding a Column to a Table

Add columns to an existing table in the Data Designer.

A column can only contain data of a specific type, such as strings, integers or dates.

Implementation:

  1. Click the icon in the Activity Bar.
  2. Switch to the Definitions panel.
  3. Right-click the intended table and select Edit Table.
  4. Select the type of data the column should hold.
  5. Enter a suitable name for the column. This can only contain letters and numbers, and will not accept symbols or spaces.
  6. (Optional) Assign a Default Value to the column. This value is specific to the data type and will be displayed at the bottom of the grid when a column is created.

Depending on your selected data type you can set the Maximum Length.

  1. Click Add New Column.
