QuickStart

DataTabs is a highly performant, flexible, and simple data interface platform built by TJ-Tronics Systems. DataTabs excels at managing small, distributed key-value data values, that you can store, share, read and update via API, AI or just the UI. These DataTabs are grouped together in documents.

If you're used to a database, you can think of a DataTab as a unique field in a database table, while the row is represented by the Document and the database schema as your Layout

Instanced layouts allow for creating more than one document per layout. Equal to multiple rows per table, while by default holding only one row per table.

Prerequisites

• A DataTabs account (free trial or paid). Signup here.

Activate your free trial or purchase a plan. Then select "New Document" in your side panel to open the layout editor of a new document. Set your title and add a DataTab. You can close the editor via the x-button in the top right corner to return to your document.

Connecting via API

To write data to or read data from your DataTab first create an Api Key. Click on your Name in the bottom left of the side panel and go to "Api Keys".

Click "New Api Key", give it a name (you can change it later) and create a new Api key. Copy the key into your application or to your server from where you want to connect. You can only view the key once. Make sure to delete or to deactivate unused keys.

For documentation on each individual Api request, refer to the Api Reference.
