Render omitted auto integer primary key values as muted auto text in the bulk insert preview so generated IDs are easier to understand.
Expose the auto primary key flag in insert UI metadata and cover the preview behavior in Playwright.
Expose conflict handling in the bulk insert UI when pasted rows include primary key columns, and route update-or-insert selections through the existing upsert API.
Add live validation for bulk textarea column errors and Playwright coverage for upsert permissions, conflict options, and validation behavior.

Expose whether the actor can insert rows in the create-table page data, then use that flag to hide and guard the create-table-from-data path. This avoids offering a flow that fails after preview for create-table-only actors.

Convert blank delimited cells to null when create-table-from-data inferred an integer or float column. This keeps sqlite-utils from treating mixed numeric and empty-string values as text.
Add a Playwright regression covering CSV table creation with a blank numeric value.
Works entirely using existing JSON API.
User can paste in CSV, TSV or JSON (or drop a text file on).
They get a preview of the rows to be imported, then they
are imported in max_insert_rows batches.
Add a collapsed rename-table section to the alter table modal and include rename_table operations in the review/apply flow.
Redirect to the renamed table URL after applying changes and cover the review text in Playwright.
Share default value controls between the create and alter table dialogs and expose create-table default expressions to the frontend.
Add create-table not-null/default handling and align the shared foreign key picker behavior across both dialogs.
Include current foreign key metadata in the alter table page data and allow the foreign-key-targets endpoint to be read by actors with alter-table permission for a specific table.
Add API and HTML data tests for the new alter-table foreign key support.
- Add foreignKeyTargetsPath to create table page data
- Filter hidden tables from database-level foreign key target results
- Update JSON API docs and tests for filtered targets
Returns a list of tables with a single primary key, and for each one
the name of that primary key column and its SQLite type affinity.
This will be used by the create table UI to suggest foreign keys.
- Add add_foreign_key, drop_foreign_key, and set_foreign_keys operations.
- Validate flat fk_table and fk_column arguments with Pydantic.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.
- Add fk_table and optional fk_column support to create-table columns.
- Validate create-table requests with Pydantic while preserving existing errors.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.

- Extract reusable helpers for database and table action permission preloading.
- Precompute those permissions before building table-page HTML data.
- Document the default table actions plugin.
- Use a per-process socket path for the UDS test fixture.
- Clean up stale socket files before and after the fixture runs.
- Close the HTTP client and wait for the Datasette subprocess to exit.
- Register a built-in table action and expose alter-table metadata to table pages.
- Build the client-side modal for editing columns, defaults, ordering, primary keys, and custom column types.
- Add a review/apply confirmation flow with HTML and Playwright coverage.

- Add POST /<database>/<table>/-/alter with Pydantic validation and dry-run support.
- Support add, rename, alter, drop, primary-key and reorder operations, including allow-listed default expressions.
- Document the endpoint and cover schema changes, validation, permissions, events and dry runs.
Refs #2788
Adds a permission-gated database action that opens a create table modal on database pages, backed by the existing create-table JSON API.
The modal starts with an id integer primary key column plus a blank text column, supports SQLite type selection, and shows custom column type controls only when the actor can set column types.
Selected custom column types are applied after table creation with follow-up set-column-type API calls. Includes styling plus HTML and Playwright coverage for the action payload and create-table flow.
Previously there were four lines of whitespace, but that
meant users had to delete that whitespace themselves when
they started editing. Now it is four lines tall without that.
Add a Create table starter template to the execute-write page, alongside the existing table-specific insert/update/delete templates.
Keep template button clicks in-page by updating CodeMirror and the URL without collapsing the template controls.
Refresh schema metadata after successful schema-changing execute-write statements so newly created tables appear immediately.
