Manage a data table
AI-generated summary
Genesys Cloud provides comprehensive data table management functionality through the Architect interface. Users can create, edit, delete, and manage data tables and their rows with specific permissions required for each action. Key features include adding custom fields, renaming tables and reference key labels, reordering fields, and adding notes. The system maintains the original data table schema even when labels are edited, with exported .csv files retaining original custom field keys. Notable limitations include the inability to delete custom fields after saving a data table or modify the original schema. The interface supports both single and bulk deletion operations for tables and rows, with confirmation required for deletion actions. Navigation is primarily through Admin > Architect > Data Tables or Menu > Orchestration > Orchestration Assets > Data Tables, with options for viewing, editing, and deleting appearing when hovering over table entries.

Manage data table configurations from the Data Tables page. For more information about how to import or export data tables, or to review recent imports, see Import or export data tables.
You can add or edit custom fields associated with a data table. You can rename the data table, the reference key label, or reorder custom fields. You can also add or remove notes and change the order of the fields.
Notes:
- You cannot delete custom fields after you save the data table.
- You can rename the reference key label and the custom field labels of an existing data table, but you cannot change the original data table schema that you defined when you created the data table. For example, when you export the data table that you edited, the exported .csv file contains the original custom field keys, and not the newly edited titles (or labels) of the keys.
