Share data with other apps
Share data across apps and portals. Users can then read, edit, or add new records from other apps.
Updates are shown on both data grids. If there are linked fields and you hope to update those fields on the shared table, share this table with the app as well. They can be hidden from the navigation so end users do not see the table.
To share a table
Go to
Manage Fields and DataSelect Settings
In the Share Settings row select Expand
Select Share
Add a shared table
Go to the app you want to add the table
Select the add table icon
Choose the name of the shared table
In this example, my shared table is called Employees:
Identify a shared table by selecting the menu icon on Manage Fields and Data
= Shared with the app and can be removed or is being shared but not used by another app
No trash icon = table is being shared in another app or portal
Remove a shared table
Go to Manage Fields and Data
Select Settings
Expand the row Remove shared data
Select the button that says Remove Table and confirm
The table can't be deleted or unshared in the original app until it's been unshared from all apps.
Unshare a table
To unshare a table, all apps using it should remove the imported table first, then the table can be unshared from the original app.
Go to
Manage fields and DataSelect Settings
Expand the row Unshare Table
Select Unshare table and Confirm
