Well, Happy Addons recently introduced the Data Table widget ( in the Free version), where users could easily create a data table on to their Elementor site & give it a design whatever they want.
But now we’re thinking to add more advanced functions & features to our data table feature. That’s why we have released the Advanced-Data table widget for our users.
How To Use Advanced-Data Table
Here is how you can utilize the Advanced-Data table widget on your elementor site easily by the following steps:-
Step One:
First of all, you’ll need to drag the widget and paste it on the screen that we work.
Anyways, after selecting the widget, you’ll get the following options to start customizing this widget.
Step Two:
Here you can see, there four types of table options are available. To use each of these tables, you’ll need to perform individual activities.
Four types of tables that you can use:-

- Import
Google Sheet
Well, using the Google Sheet feature, you can directly use your Google Sheet data right on this widget. But in that case, you need to generate Google API keys and Google Client id. And then select the range that you want to show from your Google sheet.

Here you can align your format. For example, heading & content alignment.
Now comes the important part. Enabling/disabling cache. If you want to update your data from the table, then first of all you should insert the information to your Google sheet.
Let’s say we’re changing the designation of Angelica Ramos, Cheif Executive officer to Chief Senior Officer.
And then come back to this page, and enable remove the cache. After sometimes you could see that the information you changed in your Google sheet, will appear here.
But Don’t forget to turn it off when you have done editing Google Sheet.
TablePress
