Keep copied spreadsheet templates aligned with the single-row insert columns while still previewing auto primary keys in bulk insert rows.
Treat invalid JSON during live bulk-insert validation as unfinished input so Firefox does not expose browser-specific parse errors while typing.
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.
In the create table dialog a column can now have either a custom display
type or a foreign key target, but not both - a foreign key column's type
is determined by the referenced primary key, so a custom type doesn't
apply. Setting one clears and disables the other, and the foreign key
select stays disabled on the primary key column and when no targets exist.
Also add "Controls how Datasette displays and edits this column" help
text (with aria-describedby) under the custom type selector in both the
create and alter dialogs, and style the alter dialog help text.
- Add create table advanced controls for foreign keys and first-column primary keys
- Share schema dialog row helpers between create and alter dialogs
- Move custom type into advanced options and add Add column icons
- 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.
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.
