Fill table with data from external database

pimh 01 Sep, 2024

Hi Max, 

I tried to create a page showing (in a table) the content from an external database table. Via the read database function I can access the data. However in the table option there is no behaviour external table available. Is there a work around? Will this feature be added (soon)? 

Kind regards,Pim

Hi Pimh

This feature is not available at the moment, when do you need it ?

No need. Can work around it, but it would have been handy if it did exist.

I have added a data source setting for the table view in the next update, you can use a Read Data action to feed the table!
