View data tables column limits

Column type	Description	Limit	Example
Short text	Text field used to store small strings or textual data. Typically, this data type is for names, short descriptions, status codes, or small identifiers.	Maximum of 10,000 characters. Sorting and filtering is supported for only the first 756 characters.	A very short description [email protected] John Doe
Long text	Multi-line text field. Typically, this data type is for large amounts of text, such as descriptions, comments, or any large block of text.	Maximum of 10,000 characters. Sorting and filtering is supported for only the first 756 characters.	A long description or comment that can span many lines…
Decimal	IEEE-754 floating-point numbers. Commonly used for precise calculations involving fractional numbers, such as percentages or scientific measurements.	Floating-point numbers do not enforce a fixed number of decimal places. Precision is determined by the number’s range. For example, smaller values can represent more decimal places accurately, while larger values lose precision due to spacing between representable values.	0.1 3.141592653589793 1.7976931348623157 × 10³⁰⁸
Boolean	A true/false value.	NA	TRUE FALSE
Date	Calendar dates (such as, year, month, and day) without time information. Useful for fields such as birthdates, event dates, or transaction dates. Date columns inherit the timezone and date and time format of your workspace. This means that the exact date format can vary, depending on your settings.	Supports a range of dates between 262,145 BCE and 262,143 CE.	13/11/2024 11/13/2024
DateTime	Date and time (including hours, minutes, seconds). Used to track exact moments of events, transactions, or logs. DateTime columns inherit the timezone and date and time format of your workspace. This means that the exact date and time format can vary, depending on your settings.	Follows RFC 3339 protocol.	13/11/2024 00:00:00 11/13/2024 12:00 AM
File	Allows you to upload or download files to/from your data tables.	Maximum file size: 100 MB. File names can have up to 255 characters.	NA
Link to a table	Display data from a different data table in your workspace. Choose a Linked data table to select another data table to link to your current table and Display data from to determine which column from the data table you have selected displays as a dropdown.	Each data table can link to a maximum of 20 data tables. Data tables supports linking to short text and long text column types.	NA
Multi-value	This column supports storing multiple values in a single cell. Multi-value columns do not support nulls, empty strings, or duplicate values. Sorting columns is not supported. Supported value types include short Text, Integer, Decimal, Date, DateTime, and Link to a table.	Each data table can have a maximum of 20 multi-value columns. Each cell within a multi-value column can store up to 20 values.	NA
