Insert table column action

The Insert table column action enables you to add a column to an existing table at a default or specified position, enhancing table customization and data organization.

Settings

  • In the Table name field, enter the name of the table where you want to insert a column.

    (Optional) If you have stored the table name as a variable, click the Insert a value icon to select it.

    Note: The table name is a string value and NOT a data table name. For information on how to retrieve the Excel table name, see Rename an Excel table.
  • (Optional) In the Column name field, specify the name of the column that will be inserting.

    For example, if you are inserting a column called April into a table called Sales, enter April in the Column name field.

    (Optional) If you have stored the column name as a variable, click the Insert a value icon to select it.

  • In the Column position field, enter the position where you want to insert the column.

    The column position in a table is numeric and the index starts from 1. For example, if the table called Sales has five columns, and you want to insert a column called April in the fourth position, enter 4 in the Column position field.

  • Enter the name of the session used to open the workbook with the Open action.

    (Optional) If you have stored the session name as a variable, click the Insert a value icon to select it.
