Adds empty table to the flow, you can manually add and edit data.

Overview

The Empty Table Node offers a straightforward way to manually input data directly into your workflow. An empty table interface appears when you add this node onto your canvas, allowing you to type in your data or paste it from your clipboard. This feature is particularly useful for incorporating ad-hoc data, running quick tests, or supplementing existing data sets.

Editing cells

Use arrows to navigate between cells.

Fill with values depending on column type:

String -> fill cells with free text; no quotes are needed.

Decimal -> use a period (.) as a decimal part separator

Boolean -> use values true or false

DateTime -> use format yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss (ex. 2023-04-25 13:54:21)

Date -> use format yyyy-MM-dd (ex. 2023-04-25)

Time -> use format HH:mm:ss (ex. 13:54:21)

You can copy an existing table from Excel or CSV (using hotkeys Ctr+C or Cmd+C, depending on your operating system) and paste it directly into the table in the app by putting the focus in the first field and pressing Ctrl+V or Cmd+V.

Ask AI

Set a prompt, and AI will automatically generate the table. The AI creativity slider sets the "freedom" for AI to generate the result, whether it should strictly match the query or allow deviations.

To get the result from AI, click on the airplane icon first, and if you are happy with the answer, hit "Create table". Hit the "Start new chat" button to start a new chat and forget the previous context.
