Creating a Database

Creating a Database

Databases are essential for storing and managing structured data within a workspace. The platform allows users to create a database that aligns with their workspace, ensuring consistency and security. Follow the steps below to create a new database.

Steps to Create a Database

1. Navigate to Data Management > Databases.
2. Click "Create Database".
3. The database name will automatically include a prefix matching your Workspace ID.
4. Select the required tables for your database. (Additional tables can be added later, but existing tables cannot be deleted.)
5. Recommended tables:
   • Data Table: A wide-format table suited for storing sensor readings.
   • Measurement Table: A tall-format table optimized for readings in double data type format.

Once the database is created, it will be available within the Data Management section for further configuration and data entry. Ensure that the selected tables meet your data storage needs, as they cannot be removed after creation. If you need assistance, contact the support team for guidance.
