When a data source powers your app, you can continuously update your app contents without having to republish it. It allows you to build a dynamic app that can create, read, update, and delete data.
You can choose one of the following data sources:
Click the data icon in the left side panel to access your data source library.
Click the plus sign at the top of the panel.
You can select from previously added data sources or add a new data source. Click Create New.
Follow the data source-specific instructions to complete the connection: - Google Sheets - Airtable - Local Table
You can also connect a data source in a data viewer's properties panel. Learn more here: Data Viewer Components.
Open a data source.
Click Add Filter View.
Add one or more filter rules.
Click Create Filter View.
Select the Filter View in a data viewer's properties panel.
Open a data source.
Click on a Filter View.
Click Sort icon.
Select column.

There are multiple methods to delete a data source.
Open the project.
Click the data icon in the left side panel to access your project's data source library.
Access your Projects Page.
Click Data Sources in the left sidebar.
Click the trash can icon next to a data source you want to delete.
Once you have connected your project to a data source, you can use the data viewer components as a presentation layer to display the data in your data source.
To access the data sources blocks, you must first connect a data source. Then, by incorporating the data source blocks into your app, you can allow users to create, read, update, and delete data in your data source when they interact with the data viewer.
