# Native Tables

### Create a New Native Table

Below is an example of how to create a native table. You will be able to edit columns or create new columns after table creation, too.

### FAQ

#### What happens if I edit column names in native tables that are referenced in the building blocks?

All building block references to the column name that you changed will be **automatically** changed, so you do not need to do any re-mapping.

#### What happens if I delete columns in native tables that are referenced in the building blocks? What if I remove the native table from the TaskBot or delete it completely?

All building block references will be automatically removed from your building blocks.&#x20;

**Note**: Write JavaScript building block will retain its setRef() and getRef() methods, but the deleted column name in the arguments will be automatically changed to "INVALID".

#### What happens if I convert a native table to a Google Sheet?

See [Convert Native Table to a Google Sheet](/using-zerowork/using-tables/convert-native-table-to-a-google-sheet.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zerowork.io/using-zerowork/using-tables/native-tables.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
