Vega Table Component

Overview

The Vega Table component is a powerful tool that lets you gather, organize, and display data in your application. Using the Vega Table component, you can retrieve data and customize how it displays. You can also use Vega Table operations that give end-users End-users, also known as Express Users, are the individuals accessing an application through Express View. In most cases, end-users are the customers using the product. the ability to dynamically modify the way they see your data.

To use the Vega Table component, you must enable Vega in your module. To learn more about enabling Vega, see the Adding a Vega Table Component section of this article.

Like the Panel or Field Group components, the Vega Table component acts as a grouping or storage component for fields (other components) configured inside it. Instead of creating self-contained pages or sections, the Vega Table uses the component fields to create table headers. You can add any Unqork component to your Vega Table, but each component behaves differently depending on the view settings of your Vega Table component.

Common ways you can use the Vega Table component include: 

  • Collecting, editing, and displaying data from different sources on a single screen, such as a dashboard.

  • Displaying dynamic data that end-users can manipulate using Vega Table Operations.

  • Applying logic (rules, calculations, procedural operations, and so on) to multiple data records simultaneously.

To learn more about Vega Table operations, view our Vega Table Operations reference guide.

You can find the Vega Table component under the Display & Layout group to the left of the Module Builder.

Description

Label Text

Label Text conveys what the input component is and what information it displays. Enter the purpose of the corresponding component or field.

User-friendly labels make your module more accessible. Keep labels short and descriptive (a word or two) using title case. For longer entries, use sentence case.

View Type

Displays Grid as a Spreadsheet or Form.

The View Type affects how component fields and their settings display in your table.

Table Tools

Setting

Description

Show Tool Bar

Set to (ON) to display table options to end-users, including:

  • Filter Table: Search and filter all fields in the table by entering a value. Fields that don't match the search value are hidden.

  • Filter Individual Column: Display a search bar below each column header. Enter a value to search and filter all fields in the column. Fields that don't match the search value are hidden.

By default, this setting is Off in Express View.

  • Hide Column(s): Click to open a menu displaying a checkbox next to each column header. Uncheck one or more headers to hide them from view.

  • Condense Row Spacing: Click to add or remove space above and below values displaying in each row. Spacing can be condensed or expanded up to three times before resetting.

  • Full Screen: Click to expand the table to the full size of the browser window.

In Express View, full-screen tables might be partially hidden by the Preview Bar. Remove or hide the preview bar to see the top portion of the table.

By default, this setting is (OFF) in Express View.

Show Column Actions

Set to (ON) to display column actions. Settings include:

In the list below, headerValue is replaced by column's header name.

  • Clear Sort: This action is available after applying a Sort By action. Click this action to remove any column sorting.

  • Sort by headerValue ascending: Click to sort the column alphabetically or numerically by the smallest, first, or earliest letter or numerical value.

  • Sort by headerValue descending: Click to sort the column alphabetically or numerically by the largest, or last letter or numerical value.

  • Clear Filter: This action is available after applying a Filter By action. Click this action to remove any column filtering.

  • Filter by headerValue: Display a search bar below each column header. Enter a value to search and filter all fields in the column. Fields that don't match the search value are hidden. Same effect as the Filter Individual Column setting.

  • Hide headerValue column: Hides the column from view. Same effect as the Hide Column(s) setting.

By default, this setting is (OFF)

Show Pagination

When set to (ON), displays the page sequence numbers at the bottom of the table. By default, paginated tables display 20 rows. End-users can change the amount displayed to 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50, or 100 rows.

By default, this setting is (ON).

Data Panel

Data Storage

Image displaying the Vega Table component's Data Panel Settings.

Setting

Description

Store Data in Database

The Store Data in Database setting affects how data persists through your application. When set to  (ON), Unqork stores values entered into the field to the database (server-side submission). This occurs in three scenarios:

  • Navigating between Panels in a Navigation component. On navigation between pages (Panels), the component’s value saves to the database.

  • Triggering a module save event using a Button component with an Action Type of Save.

  • Navigating between screens of a workflow. On navigation between screens, the component’s value saves to the database.

By default, workflows persist data from all fields in the client-side submission when navigating between screens. However, only values from fields with Store Data in Database enabled store in the server-side submission.

Set the toggle to (OFF) when you don’t want to store the values from this field in the database.

When using a Plug-In to remote execute a module, ensure data moving between modules is persistent. You can optionally enable Store Data in Database for components in the source module. But any components in the API module whose values are included in an API response must have Store Data in Database enabled. When a component’s data is not persistent, the data isn't included in an API call's response. So, Plug-Ins or external services requesting data from the API module can't receive non-persistent data in the response. To learn more about Store Data in Database in the context of API modules, see the panelResponse Panel section of the API Specification Snippet article in our In-Product Help.

Store Data in Database also affects what data is tracked using Unqork’s built-in tracker. When the Enable Tracker and Track Value toggles are set to  (ON) in Module Settings, only values from fields with Store Data in Database enabled are tracked.

Initial Values & Data Mapping

Rows that contain no data in any column field do not display in Express View.

Store Data in Database

The Store Data in Database setting affects how data persists through your application. When set to  (ON), Unqork stores values entered into the field to the database (server-side submission). This occurs in three scenarios:

  • Navigating between Panels in a Navigation component. On navigation between pages (Panels), the component’s value saves to the database.

  • Triggering a module save event using a Button component with an Action Type of Save.

  • Navigating between screens of a workflow. On navigation between screens, the component’s value saves to the database.

By default, workflows persist data from all fields in the client-side submission when navigating between screens. However, only values from fields with Store Data in Database enabled store in the server-side submission.

Set the toggle to (OFF) when you don’t want to store the values from this field in the database.

When using a Plug-In to remote execute a module, ensure data moving between modules is persistent. You can optionally enable Store Data in Database for components in the source module. But any components in the API module whose values are included in an API response must have Store Data in Database enabled. When a component’s data is not persistent, the data isn't included in an API call's response. So, Plug-Ins or external services requesting data from the API module can't receive non-persistent data in the response. To learn more about Store Data in Database in the context of API modules, see the panelResponse Panel section of the API Specification Snippet article in our In-Product Help.

Store Data in Database also affects what data is tracked using Unqork’s built-in tracker. When the Enable Tracker and Track Value toggles are set to  (ON) in Module Settings, only values from fields with Store Data in Database enabled are tracked.

Add Row on Initialization

Adds one blank row if the Table contains no data entries on initialization. If the Table contains data entries, the row won't be added.
