Definition and Usage

Use this command to add a new table to a Lark Base and optionally define its initial fields and default view name. It requires a previously connected Lark Base object. You can also store the newly created table for use in later steps.

Parameter Values

Input Parameters

Parameter Name

Description

Possible Values

Required

Options / Notes

Lark Base

Select the connected Lark Base to which the table will be added.

A Lark Base object

Yes

Must come from the Connect Lark Base command; ensure the connection is valid.

Data table name

Name for the new table; trims leading/trailing spaces.

Text

Yes

Use a unique, descriptive name; spaces at ends are removed automatically.

Default view name

Name of the default view for the table.

Text or blank

No

Leave blank to default to “Table”; choose a clear view name if customizing.

Initial fields

Define fields to create with the table.

List/structure

No

Include only fields supported by Lark Base; plan types and order as needed.

Advanced Settings

No advanced settings available.

Error Handling

Parameter Name

Description

Throw error & stop

When an error occurs, the action will stop execution.

Retry command

The action retries the command if an error occurs.

Ignore error & continue

The action ignores the error and continues workflow execution.

Variables Produced

This action can produce a variable containing the newly created table. Use it to reference the table in subsequent actions, such as adding records, updating schema, or linking it with other tables in the same base.

Using Variables in Conditions

You can pass dynamic values from earlier steps into this command. For example, select a Lark Base object created by a prior connection step, or construct table and view names from earlier variables. If the UI marks a field with {x}, it indicates that the field accepts variables. Use variables to standardize naming, branch logic, or reuse the resulting table in later steps.

Notes

  • Ensure you have already connected to Lark Base before running this command.

  • The Lark Base object must be valid and accessible with your current credentials.

  • If “Data table name” conflicts with an existing table or violates naming rules, creation may fail.

  • Leaving “Default view name” blank will create a default view named “Table”.

  • Define “Initial fields” carefully to match expected data types and future workflow needs.
