Data formats

Dataformats are where you define the contract for the data you want to use within NoCode-X. This is mostly but not limited to use within actions & the built-in database.

If you want to be able to reason with data for example use a certain property of a data in a function within one of your actions you are best of with creating a data-format & mark that data as being of that type.

If you want to store data in the built-in database, you will have to create a data-format. The data you store will have to be created & valid according to the rules within that data-format.
