The table can be created either in-game, by importing data from an external application, or by creating a structure in blueprints and then importing the data into the data table editor. Data can be added, deleted, and altered in the table editor.

The data table can be accessed with the "row" or "did table row names" commands, and it can be imported from a variety of sources, including Excel and Google Docs.
