Create DataTable
Estimated reading: 2 minutes
The Create DataTable component converts data from files or workflow outputs into a reusable DataTable for use in subsequent steps of the flow.
When should I use this?
Use this component when:
1. Data is available in a CSV or Excel file.
2. Data comes from another component as a DataFrame.
3. Data needs to be stored and reused across multiple steps in the workflow.
How it works
1. Choose a data source (CSV, Excel, or DataFrame).
2. Provide a name for the DataTable.
3. Configure overwrite options, if required.
4. Run the flow to create the DataTable.
