Create a Table in the Data Store

Let’s now create a table in the Data Store of the Dialer project. As discussed earlier, this table is used to store to-do list items created by the user.

To create a table:

Navigate to Cloud Scale in the Catalyst console and click Start Exploring.
Navigate to DataStore on the left pane and click Create a new Table.
Enter the table’s name as “CallLog” and click Create.

Note : Ensure that you enter the name exactly as instructed, because the application's code contains the same name.

The table is now created and displayed in the Data Store page.

Create Columns

Next, let’s create a column to store the details of the call.

Click New Column in the Schema View section of the table.

Enter the column’s name as “callDuration”. Select the data type as ‘int’ and click the ‘Is Mandatory’ toggle switch to enable it. You can learn about the various data types supported by Catalyst and the other properties of a column from the Data Store help page.
Click Create.

The column will be created and listed in the Schema View section.

You must now create five other columns in the same way. The table must contain six columns in total with the following mandatory properties :

Column Name	Data Type	Max Length
callStatus	varchar	255
calledCountry	varchar	255
timeOfCall	varchar	255
fromNumber	varchar
toNumber	text

Note: Ensure that you enter the name exactly as instructed, because the application's code contains the same name.

You have now configured all the necessary components from the console. You will now be working on coding the application from your local system.
