## Overview

**Tables** can be used to collect structured information in bulk across different field types. Common use cases include:

* Collecting an order list
* Requesting an expense breakdown
* Creating a staff directory

## How to insert a table

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add a table field">
    On the left-hand panel, look for the `Table` field. Click `+ Add column` to ask a question or request for information.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your field types">
    Choose from 5 different field types: short answer, email input, date picker, dropdown, and number. The email input field will only accept valid email addresses.

    Reorder the columns by dragging them in the right-hand panel.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Reference the table (Optional)">
    You can also reference the table field by typing **@** and selecting it from the choices.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish and share your form">
    Click `Preview` in the upper right corner to test your form. Respondents will be able to quickly add more rows as needed. Once everything is set, click `Publish` to make your form live.

    <Warning>
      Connecting the table field to an [integration]() is currently not supported. However, responses can be viewed in a modal on the Results page.

## Table vs choice matrix

With a **table**, you can add different types of question fields, such as text, numbers, or dropdowns. In contrast, a [**choice matrix**](/matrix) is limited to using only radio buttons for tasks like rating, comparing, or selecting options within a grid.
