Table Import
In the Import section, you will see all the Models you have access to, whether those you own or those that were shared with you. Below each Model, you will find a list of all the tables available there. You can also find a list of Tables that have been explicitly shared with you.
You can reuse those Tables by importing them into the current Model you are working on. In order to do so, you can drag and drop any Table into the Canvas.
If you import Tables from Models where you are a Collaborator or Viewer and the Table is not explicitly shared with you, this action will trigger a request for the Model Owner to share the Table with you. You will need to wait for their approval before you can access the Table.
⚠️ Pending Import Requests
Imported Tables that are waiting for the Model Owner’s response will not appear in the Canvas until the request is approved and you create a Table View based on it.
You can find the pending tables grayed out in the Directory section.
You can choose to cancel the import request at any time.
If you are a viewer of a Model, meaning that you can not edit it, and one of the tables owned by your models have been imported there, you can still control the access to the table.
Data Consistency Across Models
After importing Tables, we make sure that the data in the source Table and the imported Table are consistent across Models.
Whenever changes are made to the original Table, they are detected in the Models where the Table has been imported, allowing you to manually trigger a sync to update the data to the latest state to ensure consistency wherever the Table is.
