Datatable is a Flow Screen Component that allows you to configure and display a datatable on a flow screen. All you need to do is drag it onto the flow screen in the Flow Builder and give it a collection of records and a list of field names. The field label, type, and numeric formatting will default to what is defined in the object. The displayed records can be selected and/or edited for further use in the flow.
While interacting with the datatable, the user can sort columns, filter columns, search for records, change column widths, wrap or clip the displayed text, select rows, and edit fields.
Even though the component can be very simple to use in its basic format, you have a tremendous amount of flexibility and capability when you take advantage of some of the numerous optional attributes that are available.
Rows can be selected and passed back to a collection variable in the flow
A collection of pre-selected rows can be passed into the component
The selection column can be multi-select (Checkboxes), single-select (Radio Buttons), or hidden
The records can be filtered by column values
The records can be filtered with a search term
Rich Text, Images and Hyperlink formulas are supported
The Standard object Name field and Lookup fields can be displayed as clickable links
Inline editing is supported with changed values passed back to the flow
Output parameters include # of selected records, # of edited records, SObject and SObject Collection variables
When just a single record is selected, the output will include a Record variable in addition to a Record Collection variable
The maximum number of rows to display can be set by the user
You can make record selection Required
You can add an Icon, Header Label and Record Count to the datatable
The datatable height and border can be customized
You can fix each individual column width or allow it to flex to fit the screen
Optional attribute overrides are supported and can be specified by list, column # or by field name, including:
Cell Alignment
Column Header Icon
Column Header Label
Initial Column Width
Column Filter Allowed
Column Edit Allowed
Custom Cell Attributes with nested values {name: {name:value}}
Custom Type Attributes with nested values {name: {name:value}}
Other Custom Column Attributes with nested values {name: {name:value}}
Object Support
The Salesforce Object is specified at the time of configuration, allowing just one version of this component to be used for all Salesforce Objects.
The datatable will only display the first 2000 records in the input collection. A collection passed in with more than 2000 records could cause an Apex CPU time limit exceeded error.
When filtering rows in a datatable, any previously selected rows that are not part of the resulting filtered rows will be deselected.
Columns of data type Time cannot be filtered.
Datetime columns can only be filtered on the date.
Some data types cannot yet be edited in a datable (lookup, location, time, multi-select picklists, encrypted, rich text, long text area).
For a Screen Reader to work correctly, the datatable must have a value for the Table Header. The header does not have to be displayed.
If you add custom TypeAttributes to a Date or Datetime field, the value will be converted from a ‘date-local’ value to a standard datetime value. This will cause the value to be processed as UTC time rather than being converted to the browser’s local time zone.
In order for a lookup or master/detail field to display as a link, it must be “reparentable”
In order to have the Datatable display a Lookup field as a link to the record rather than just the recordId value in the field, the running User must have Edit access to the object whose records are being displayed in the Datatable. For example, if you have a Datatable for Contact records and include the AccountId(Lookup) field, the running User needs to have Edit access for the Contact object in order for the AccountId field to show as a clickable link with the Account’s Name. Without Edit access to the Contact record, the Datatable will display, as unclickable, the Account’s recordId value. For information on how you can temporarily add then remove Edit access in a Flow, read the referenced Help Article and/or complete the referenced Trailhead. Help Article: Create a Flow That Can Activate or Deactivate a Session-Based Permission Set Trailhead: Session-Based Permission Sets and Security
Running User has Edit access to the Contact object
Running User does not have Edit access to the Contact object
With the update to selecting a record type for picklist field edits, the running User must have Read Access to the object being displayed in the Datatable. If they do not, any Record Type Id attribute will be ignored and all Picklist values will be available when editing a Picklist field.
When allowing editing of picklist fields in a table with a small number of records, you can set the “Allow table to overflow its container” attribute so the list of picklist values will not be constrained to the dimensions of the datatable. Note that, with this setting enabled, a wide table could overflow when being displayed in a narrow container. When setting this attribute, the “Table Height” attribute will be ignored.
When editing Percent fields you must enter the true decimal value. Example: .25 for 25%
2 fewer decimal places will be available when editing than what has been defined for the percent field
If you pass in pre-selected records that are not actually in the collection of displayed records, the numberOfRowsSelected output attribute will be equal to the # of pre-selected rows passed into the component if no additional selection changes are made by the user. However, the outputSelectedRows output attribute will not include any records not in the input collection.
When using the Datatable for the ContentVersion object, do not let Salesforce “Automatically store all fields” in your Get Records. Instead, pick “Choose fields and let Salesforce do the rest” and be sure NOT to include the VersionData field. That field contains the entire content of the referenced file and can be too large to be handled correctly by this component.
If you are selecting an Object that contains Geolocation fields (ie: Contact), you may experience a Salesforce Bug where the Flow will stop just before the Datatable should be displayed or the Flow will display an error when clicking Next and show another copy of the same datatable. If this happens, unselect “Automatically store all fields” in your Get Records and choose your fields manually.
If you are editing, then updating records that contain a non-custom integer field (Account: NumberOfEmployees) you may experience a Salesforce Bug and see this error:
This error occurred when the flow tried to update records: Argument must be a big decimal java.lang.Long.
If you see this error when trying to Configure Columns, try going to Setup > Security > Session Settings and unchecking “Enable clickjack protection for customer Visualforce pages with headers disabled“. Also, in your Setup > User settings, make sure both Debug Mode and Development Mode are Unchecked.
Starting in v4.1.0, if Debug Mode is enabled, the Column Configuration Wizard is unable to display any sample records
Or you can manually add permissions to access these Apex Classes to any Profiles that will be running Flows using the Datatable component
ers_DatatableController
ers_EncodeDecodeURL
ers_QueryNRecords
* The following components from the Flow Base Packs are used in Datatable: FlowActionsBasePack usf3.FieldDescriptor usf3.FieldPickerController usf3.GetFieldInformation
Starting with Version 3.0.9 you can check the current version of your Datatable component by looking at the bottom of the Advanced section in the Custom Property Editor.
Starting with Version 3.0.0, this component includes a CPE (Custom Property Editor). This makes it much easier to configure the Datatable when adding it to your Flow Screens.
Each section in the CPE (Custom Property Editor) has a help page you can access by clicking on the (i) in the header.
Each instance of the Datatable Component requires an API Name, an Object and a Collection of Records to display.
Normally, the Select Object picklist will display the most common Standard objects and all Custom objects. If you select the “Display ALL Objects for Selection” checkbox, all Salesforce objects should be available in the Select Object picklist.
Normally, the Select Object picklist will display the most common Standard objects and all Custom objects. If you select the “Display ALL Objects for Selection” checkbox, all Salesforce objects should be available in the Select Object picklist.
If you select the checkbox for Display Table Header, the system will automatically pick the system defined icon and plural object name for you. You can change these if you like.
The Icon Picker can also be used to select the Header Icon. Any icon selected in the picker will populate the Header Icon value automatically.
Example Header Icon and Label
If you check the “Show Row Numbers” checkbox, a column will be added on the left side of the datatable with the row number for each record in the table. The default for this setting is False, however it will always be displayed if any columns are configured to be editable.
If you select the “Show Record Count in Header” checkbox, the number of records in the datatable will be included as part of the header. This is similar to what Salesforce displays for List Views.
When checking the “Show search bar” checkbox, a search box will display in the table header. The data in all table columns will be searched and records with matching values will be displayed. The Search can be combined with the individual column Filters to restrict which records will be displayed in the Datatable. When the Datatable has been searched and/or filtered, the header will show both the number of displayed records along with the total number of records.
Other Formatting Options
NOTE: When the Search Bar is enabled, the Header is required and will appear slightly larger than a table without a Search Bar. NOTE: When the Search Bar is enabled, the border can’t be disabled and it will appear with rounded rather than square corners.
The Configure Columns button runs a special configuration wizard flow that lets you select the columns(fields) to include in your datatable. Once the fields are selected, it creates a sample table that you can interact with to customize your datatable. Upon completion of the customization, the wizard will populate up to 8 separate Column Attribute parameters for you.
Column Fields
You can select and order your fields from a list of all the fields from your datatable’s object.
You also have the option to type in a list of the field API names instead of picking from a list.
If you have saved any column configuration records, you will see a third option to select and load any of the previously saved configuration records for the current Object.
Once the fields are selected, you will see a sample datatable with your selected fields and the first few records from your selected object.
Column Alignments
You can change the default Column Alignment by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then selecting Align Left, Align Center or Align Right.
Column Edits
You can pick which columns you want to allow editing on by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking the Allow Edit tag on or off. You can also click the “Make all columns editable” button below the table to make all or none of the columns editable.
Note that some data types cannot be edited in a datable (lookup, picklist, location, encrypted, rich text, long text area). The edited record values are not saved directly to the object, but are passed back to the Flow where an Update Records can be used to permanently save the changes.
Column Filters
You can pick which columns you want to allow filtering on by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking the Allow Filter tag on or off. You can also click the “Make all columns filterable” button below the table to make all or none of the columns filterable.
Column Filters allow a user to narrow down the number of displayed records in the Datatable by entering filter values for any columns where filters are allowed. See the Filter Example at the end of this article.
When any column filters have been applied, a Clear All Filters button will be displayed under the Datatable. The button can be hidden by selecting the Hide Clear Selection/Filter Buttons option.
Column Icons
You can add an Icon to the header of any column by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking Select Icon. Use the Icon Picker to select the Icon Type and then the Icon. See https://www.lightningdesignsystem.com/icons/ for a complete list of available Icons.
Column Labels
Column Labels can be changed by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking Change Label. If a column label has been changed, you can reset it back to the default by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking Cancel Change.
Column Widths
By default, the sample table will start with each column the same width. You can change column widths by dragging the vertical line between columns.
To assist with column width consistency, once you have the columns sized approximately the way you want them, you can click the “Snap each Column Width to the Nearest 5 pixel Boundary” button below the table to adjust each column’s width to the nearest 5 pixel width.
Special Note: If you want the entire table width to fill the available container with columns all the same size, activate the “Show/Edit Column Attributes” toggle in the Advanced section and clear the entry for Column Widths. If you want certain columns to start with a particular width, set just their entries in the attribute with the desired width in pixels and all the rest of the columns with no entries will expand to fill the rest of the container width.
New in v4.1.0 – A Flex Width column attribute has been added to the Configure Columns Wizard. When selected, all flexed columns width’s will evenly expand or contract to fill the available space. You can pick which columns you want to allow flexible widths on by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking the Flex Widths tag on or off. You can also click the “Make all column widths flexible” button below the table to make all or none of the column widths flexible.
This option gives you more control over columns that you specifically want to be narrow or wide while allowing the other columns to find the best fit.
Column Wraps
You can specify if a column should wrap or clip text when it is first displayed by selecting the drop-down on a column heading and then clicking Wrap Text or Clip Text. By default all columns are set to Clip Text with the exception of the Object’s Name field, which will always display as wrapped.
Edit Special Attributes
You can edit the special Cell, Type & Other attributes in the Configure Columns Wizard screen as well as on the component configuration page. Edits made here can be saved with any Configuration Records you create or update while in the Wizard. You must select Save Changes for the attributes to be passed back to the configuration page.
Configuration Record Options
You can save the current configuration by selecting an existing Configuration record to update or you can enter a new unique name to save the configuration in a new Configuration record.
When you have finished making adjustments to the sample table, click the Done button then close the final window to return to the Flow Builder.
NOTE: Starting in v4.1.0, clicking Done on the Column Configuration Wizard screen will close the window for you.
The Table Behavior checkboxes let you fine-tune how you want the user’s interaction with the table to be. Certain options could be disabled based on the values of other options.
The advanced options let you do things like see and change all of the individual column attributes, specify a record type for picklist edit values or select an Apex-Defined object instead of a regular Salesforce object.
By default, the values shown when editing a picklist field will be all of the available options for that field regardless of Record Type restrictions. If you want to restrict the values to only be those defined for a particular Record Type, you can provide that Record Type Id in the Advanced section. This setting will apply to all rows in the datatable regardless of the individual record’s record type.
If you don’t want a –None– option to be included when editing a picklist field, clear this checkbox. Keep in mind that leaving this option out will not allow you to clear a picklist value when editing a picklist field.
Automatic currency conversion to the User’s currency in Multi-Currency orgs was introduced in v3.1.1. This option allows you to suppress that conversion.
Selecting the “Allow table to overflow its container” option is helpful when you are editing picklist values in a table with only a few records. Although this removes the need to scroll vertically to see the entire picklist drop-down, it will also cause wide datatables to horizontally overflow narrow regions on the screen.
Without Allow Overflow Selected
With Allow Overflow Selected
When you select the “Show/Edit Column Attributes” toggle, you will see each of individual column attributes settings. These are the same attributes that were required for datatableV2. You can enter your own data here or change what was pre-filled by the Configure Columns Wizard.
If you select the “Input data is Apex-Defined” or the “Input data is Serialized” checkbox, other attributes will be displayed including different selections for which records to display and which records are pre-selected.
The Configure Columns Wizard is not available for Apex-Defined objects. By default, each of the individual Column Attributes will be displayed, including Column Scales and Column Types which are unique to Apex-Defined data sources.
NOTE: For non-standard field types in Apex Defined Objects (Arrays, JSON, etc), specify a Column Type of ‘richtext‘ in order to display the complete field contents.
Special Formatting for Comma Separated List Attributes
Column Alignments
Column Edits
Column Filters
Column Icons
Column Labels
Column Scales
Column Types
Column Widths
Column Wraps
These optional attributes can be specified as a comma separated list of Column Identifier:Value pairs. The Column Identifiers can be either the column number or the field API name. Keep in mind that if you use column numbers instead of the field API name, you will have to update the identifiers if you insert, remove or change the order of the columns.
Another option is to omit the column identifiers and just provide a comma separated list of values. If you choose this method, you must provide a value for every column (A,B,,D would be invalid) and you can’t use this method with attributes that already contain a ‘:’, such as Column Icons (standard:account).
These Column Widths attributes would all work the same for setting the initial column widths of the sample table at the top of this page.
Name:300, Phone:150, BillingCity:140, Type:120
1:300, 2:150, 3:140, 4:120
Name:300, 2:150, BillingCity:140, 4:120
300,150,140,120
Special Formatting for Semicolon Separated List Attributes
Special CellAttributes
Special TypeAttributes
Special Other Attributes
These optional attributes can be specified as a semicolon separated list of Column Identifier:Value pairs. The Column Identifiers can be either the column number or the field API name. Keep in mind that if you use column numbers instead of the field API name, you will have to update the identifiers if you insert, remove or change the order of the columns. Another option is to omit the column identifiers and just provide a semicolon separated list of values. If you choose this method, you must provide a value for every column.
The reason for these attributes is to give the user more control over how their datatable is formatted. I included predefined options for standard attributes like Label, Alignment, and Width. These additional options allow the user to manually add in other standard attributes like WrapText, CellAttributes like appending an icon to column data, and TypeAttributes to fine-tune how different data types (like dates) are displayed. See the Salesforce Datatable Documentation for details.
Note: If you are referencing the value of another field in your attribute, that field must also be one of the fields displayed in the datatable. Example Cell Attribute: FancyField__c:{class: slds-theme_shade slds-theme_alert-texture, iconName: {fieldName: IconValue__c} Since the Cell Attribute for the FancyField__c column references ‘IconValue__c’, the IconValue__c field must be one of the columns included in the datatable.
Example #1: Column Icons, Column Widths & Special Column TypeAttributes
If you add custom TypeAttributes to a Date or Datetime field, the value will be converted from a ‘date-local’ value to a standard datetime value. This will cause the value to be processed as UTC time rather than being converted to the browser’s local time zone.
For more details on Date and Datetime formatting see the Salesforce Formatted Date Time documentation.
Example #2: Column Labels, Special Column CellAttributes & Special Column Other Attributes
Column Labels Name:Account Name, dt_Text__c:Field Value Used as Attribute, FancyField__c:Icon Value from a Different Field, IconValue__c:Icon Value

Review this 4-part Blog series for some ideas on how you can take advantage of datatables in your Flows. Eric writes about how he used his original datatable component to do things like dynamic record presentation and selection, how to select and act on a collection of records, displaying formatted interactive tables and how to inline edit a group of records.
Part 1: Use a Datatable to present a dynamic choice for record selection in a Flow. Part 2: Use a Datatable in a Flow to select and act on a collection of records. Part 3: Use a Datatable to display a formatted, interactive table in your Flow. Part 4: Use a Datatable to inline edit a group of records.
