I'm testing QB, and can't believe I can only import one table when I create an app.... that is unfathomable. And before anyone says, "Yes, but you can 'connect' to a CSV file or build it from scratch!"... I have to ask isn't "building from scratch" something that might also include IMPORTING another table???????? Seems kind of ridiculous to build another table from scratch when I've already imported one table easily, and I have more to import. Instead of taking 30 seconds to import, I've got to spend 30+ minutes manually re-creating the other spreadsheet?
Sorry to be a little frustrated. I really like what I'm seeing so far and have tested a few other "low-code" platforms but this is the first that can't seem to handle if you have more than one spreadsheet to import. That's an extremely basic concept... and if you let me import one... it just makes no sense at all.

Question
How to import MULTIPLE tables beyond the intitial one
This topic has been closed for replies.
+24np,
Once an app exists you can create an additional table with no fields. Then import an excel or csv file. Quick Base will offer to auto create the missing fields for you with the same names as the column headings on hour import and take a guess at the field types. Just correct any mis-guesses about the field types and import. You will then have both data and the fields to hold the data.
You can do this as many times as you like to create successive additional tables by importing data.
