Tools & capabilities
Rows.page tools 6
pushPublish rows as a rows.page dataset (or a new version of one) and get a shareable URL. Pass exactly one of csv, tsv, jsonl, json, rows or url. Up to 16 MB inline; use url for bigger files. Identical content returns unchanged: true without a new version. Re-pushes report rows_delta, columns_added/removed and a diff_url. Anonymous datasets expire after 7 days unless kept. Finding views use the rows.page query language in q: `word` or `"two words"` searches text columns; `field:value`, `field:"a b"`, `-field:value`, `field:*` (not null), `-field:*` (null), `field:foo*` (prefix); `field:>20`, `>=`, `<`, `<=`, `field:10..20`, ISO dates (`at:>2026-09-01`); dot paths for nested JSON (`payload.customer.country:NL`); `tags:urgent` means the list contains it; combine with `OR` and parentheses. A q starting with SELECT, WITH or FROM runs as SQL against the table `data`. sort is comma-separated columns, `-` for descending (`-price,name`); cols picks and orders visible columns (`a,b,c`).pin_findingPin a finding (a saved, titled view) to a dataset you own.
