How to: Add a column to a table.

After creating a database and adding a table:

1. Go to the table that you want to add a column to.

2. Click on the +Column button.

3. Fill in a name for the new column.

4. Select the type of column you want from the Type dropdown.

5. Click on the Save button.

If you do not see the +column button, you do not have role access. Only Developer roles can add columns.

That is it! Once you have created a column, you can start capturing data by clicking on +Record (add record)

Further Options

Default value: You can specify a default value. All new records will default to this value unless you type in another value when adding a record.

Calculated column: Calculated columns allow you to do calculations across multiple columns, such as adding two values or joining text columns.

Now you can start adding records
