## Description

## Project compatibility

Windows | Cross-platform

## Configuration

You can configure the activity and its properties as follows:

* **File (local path)** - The path to the Apple Numbers spreadsheet file.
  + **Use a File Resource** - Switches to a file resource reference instead of a plain path. You can browse for a file in either mode; this only changes how the reference is stored.
  + **Use Local File** - Switches back to the plain path field, restoring your previous value.
* **Sheet** - The name of the sheet in which to create the table.
* **Table name** - The name for the new table.

### Properties panel

#### Options
* **Conflict resolution** - What to do if a table with the same name already exists in the sheet. Select one of the following options:
  + **Overwrite** - Deletes the existing table and creates a new one.
  + **Don't Replace** - Throws an exception. This is the default option.
  + **Rename** - Appends a numeric suffix to create a unique table name, for example, `My Table 2`.

#### Output
* **Table information** - A snapshot of the created table's dimensions and header count, including sheet name, table name, row count, column count, and header row count.
