# Table

> This section explains how to create table dashboard elements and add them to your dashboard.

export const elementName_0 = "table"

export const elementButtonLabel_0 = "Table"

The table dashboard element displays a summary of any attributes from your metrics, logs, or traces in a sortable table format. Each row in the table could represent a different service, host, or other entity, with columns showing various attributes or metrics for that entity.

<Note>
  Column resizing is not supported in the table dashboard element. To resize columns, use the **Query** tab, switch to the column-per-field view, and drag the column borders to resize them. For more information, see [Query data](/query-data/explore#select-displayed-fields).
</Note>

## Prerequisites

* [Create an Axiom account](https://app.axiom.co/register).
* [Create a dataset in Axiom](/reference/datasets) where you send your data.
* [Send data](/send-data/methods) to your Axiom dataset.
* [Create an empty dashboard](/dashboards/create).

## Create {elementName_0}

1. Go to the Dashboards tab and open the dashboard to which you want to add the {elementName_0}.
2. Click <Icon icon="plus" iconType="regular" /> **Add element** in the top right corner.
3. Click **{elementButtonLabel_0}** from the list.
4. Choose one of the following:
   * Click **Builder** to create your chart using a visual query builder. For more information, see [Create chart using visual query builder](/dashboard-elements/create#create-chart-using-visual-query-builder).
   * Click **APL** to create your chart using the Axiom Processing Language (APL). Create a chart in the same way you create a chart in the APL query builder of the [Query tab](/query-data/explore#create-a-query-using-apl).
5. Optional: [Configure the dashboard element](/dashboard-elements/configure).
6. Click **Save**.

The new element appears in your dashboard. At the bottom, click **Save** to save your changes to the dashboard.

## Example with APL

```kusto theme={null}
['sample-http-logs']
| summarize avg(resp_body_size_bytes) by bin_auto(_time)

## Combine multiple queries in a table

Each table element uses a single query. To display data from multiple queries in one table, use the [`union`](/apl/tabular-operators/union-operator) operator in your APL query to combine results from multiple datasets or queries.

For example, to combine HTTP logs and security logs in a single table:

```kusto theme={null}
['sample-http-logs']
| union ['security-logs']
| summarize count() by status, bin_auto(_time)
```

You can also combine multiple queries with different structures. The `union` operator merges compatible fields and preserves all rows from both queries:

```kusto theme={null}
['web-server-logs']
| project _time, status, method, uri
| union ['api-server-logs']
| project _time, status, method, endpoint
| order by _time desc
```

<Info>
  If you need to display data from multiple independent queries that can't be combined with `union`, create separate table elements in your dashboard instead.
