Inserting static tables

Static tables do not have dynamic elements and are configured manually using Markdown.

To place a table on your page, use the following markup:

| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| cell 11 | cell 12 | cell 13 |
| cell 21 | cell 22 | cell 23 |

See the result

Inserting dynamic tables

Dynamic tables are tables where users can specify which data types to display, sort by value, and set required cells. You can use the table directly or embed it in the page.

Dynamic tables can be edited right from the page as long as you don't choose the Read only option during embedding. All changes are automatically applied to the main table and all its occurrences on other pages.

Creating and placing a table on a page

To create a table and place it in the text of a Wiki page:

In the panel at the top of the page, click . The table code will appear in the text:
```
{{grid page="/users/username/pagename/grid-2021-01-24t163048" width="100%"}}
```
The created table becomes a subsection of the current page.
Click Save.
Fill in the table.

Embedding an existing table

To embed a dynamic table in a page:

Open the table.
Click </> in the sidebar.
Configure the embedding parameters.
Copy the embed code and paste it into the page.

Filtering rows and columns

You can filter tables you embed so that only specific rows and columns are displayed. To do this:

Get an embed code and place it in the page text.
To choose which columns to display, add the columns parameter to your table's code. For more information about using this parameter, see Choosing columns to display.
To filter rows based on values set in specific cells, add the filter parameter to your table's code. To learn more about using this parameter, see Setting filters for displaying rows.

Jumping to the parent table

To open the original table you used for embedding:

At the bottom of the table, click .
Choose Parent table.
