Create a New Table

1. Add a new page and choose Table under Get started with.

   The first column is for entering the names of your database pages. Each column in a QuickDoc table represents a property that provides context to your items.

2. Click a property heading, then select Edit property and Type to view all available property options.

Add Data to Your Table

Let's create a task database as an example.

1. Enter your tasks in the Name column.

2. Add values to the Tags column using the multi-select property. Options like P1, P2, and P3 can indicate task priority.

3. Add a new property by clicking the + button to the right of the Tags heading.

4. Rename it to Due Date. Click the property heading, select Edit property and Type, then choose Date. Now, when you click on a cell under Due Date, a date picker will appear.

Open a Row as a Page

Every item in a QuickDoc database is also a standalone page. You can add any content you want, including other databases. In our task database example, this feature lets you keep all notes and content related to a task neatly bundled inside that task. To open a row as a page, hover over a cell in the Name column and click OPEN. You can add or edit any properties and include additional content in the body of the page.

Create New Database Views

You can create various views of the same data, such as a board, calendar, list, gallery, or timeline, depending on your needs. Let's create one.

1. Click + at the top of your table. Depending on your screen size, you may need to open the dropdown next to your current view and select Add view.

2. Name your new view and choose Board from the right-side menu.

This displays rows from your table as cards on a board, grouped by tags. Clicking on a card still opens it as a page. It's the same content, just visualized differently!

Tip: Different views serve different purposes, and you can create as many as you need!

• Gallery view is ideal for storing images.

• List view is great for minimalistic documentation storage.

• Calendar view displays your pages based on an assigned date property.

• Timeline view helps visualize project dates and durations.

Filter and Sort Your Data

1. Filter by property to focus on specific parts of your database.

   Click the filter icon at the top of your table, then select one of the default options or + Add advanced filter.

   Choose the criteria that needs to be met. The middle dropdown will offer different options based on the property.

   For instance, choose Tags as the property and set it to contain P1.

2. Add sorts to rearrange your database based on property values. Sorting helps you quickly order data by priority, date, tags, etc.

   Click ⇅ at the top of your table, then select the property you'd like to sort by.

   For example, choose Due Date and then Ascending. This will reorder tasks from the closest to the furthest due date.

Your database will update in real time based on your filter and sort criteria. You can add as many filters and sorts as needed, and each view can have its own unique filter and sort settings.
