Table Properties ​

The Table Properties tab displays detailed metadata, statistics, and the DDL (Data Definition Language) for a table or view. Open it by right-clicking a table or view in the sidebar and selecting Properties.

Sections ​

The properties tab shows different sections depending on the database engine. All sections are read-only.

General ​

Basic metadata about the table:

FieldDescriptionDatabases
NameTable or view name.All
TypeTable or View.All
SchemaSchema name.PostgreSQL
DatabaseDatabase name.MySQL, ClickHouse
OwnerTable owner.PostgreSQL
EngineStorage engine (e.g. InnoDB).MySQL, ClickHouse
CommentTable comment.PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse

Storage (MySQL only) ​

Engine and storage details:

  • Engine -- e.g. InnoDB, MyISAM.
  • Row Format -- e.g. Dynamic, Compact.
  • Collation -- e.g. utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci.
  • Character Set -- e.g. utf8mb4.

Keys & Partitioning (ClickHouse only) ​

ClickHouse-specific key information:

DDL ​

The full CREATE TABLE or CREATE VIEW statement displayed in a read-only Monaco editor. Click Copy to copy the DDL to the clipboard.

MongoDB collections do not have a DDL section.

Refresh ​

Click the Refresh button in the top-right corner to reload all property data from the database.

Tab Deduplication ​

Opening properties for the same table twice reuses the existing tab. Properties for tables and views with the same name open as separate tabs, as do tables in different schemas (PostgreSQL).
