The Table display type shows your dataset results as a spreadsheet-like grid. It’s the most direct way to explore your data.

Features

  • Column sorting — click a column header to sort ascending or descending.
  • Quick search — use the search bar in the table header to filter visible rows by text match.
  • Column visibility — hide columns you don’t need through the Rift configuration.
  • Column resizing — drag column borders to adjust widths.
  • Aggregation footers — add footer rows that show aggregates (sum, average, count, etc.) for each column.

Rift on tables

Tables support the full set of Rift transformations:
  • Group by columns to create aggregated views.
  • Filter to narrow visible rows.
  • Sort by one or more columns.
  • Hide columns to focus on what matters.

Column configuration

Each column can be individually configured:
SettingDescription
Display nameOverride the column name shown in the header.
FormatControl how values are displayed (e.g. number formatting).
WidthSet a fixed column width.
VisibleShow or hide the column.

When to use a table

Tables are best when you want to:
  • Explore raw data before deciding on a visualization.
  • Display detailed records (e.g. individual orders, user activity).
  • Cross-reference specific values.
For trends and comparisons, consider a graph. For single KPIs, use statistics.
