Database Basics

Twidget offers a comprehensive database solution for all workspaces. Here's an overview of how databases are structured and managed within Twidget:

-

Database Structure

  1. Tables: A database may contain multiple tables. Each table stores data in a structured format.

  2. Fields: Tables consist of fields that you can add or remove according to your needs.

  3. Data Types: Each field has a datatype that dictates the type of data it can store. The available datatypes are:

    • Text

    • Number

    • Boolean

    • Date

    • Object

  4. List Data: Fields can also hold lists of data if specified.

Data Storage

  • Rows: Data is stored in rows within a table. Each row represents an individual data entry.

  • Manual Editing: You can manually edit the data via the web application or through no code commands provided by Twidget.

  • Deletion: Be cautious when deleting data as deletion actions are irreversible. Once data is deleted, it cannot be restored.

Authentication

  • Authentication Table: You can designate a table as an authentication table. This is crucial for authenticating API requests. This table will specifically store user password data to manage secure access.
