An excellent feature suggestion, and an obvious next step in the evolution of the feature. This, along with a number of other data table improvements (viewing table data in a dashboard block, switching column requiredness, bulk-editing / deleting rows) is on our roadmap. I’ll add your “bump” for the bulk import via CSV feature. Thanks for the suggestion!

I would love to be able to delete rows as this comes available. Look forward to the update when it comes.

Yes please.

Importing tables and / or the possibility of copying them would be great.  
We have some standard modbus register tables that are used across applications retyping and or writing a process to copy is a bit of a pain 😉

The ability to [import data tables](https://docs.losant.com/data-tables/overview/#importing-a-data-table) from CSV files just went live. The announcement will go out Monday, but feel free to explore the feature!
