Create Table
Create a new Dune table with the specified name and namespace.
The resulting table will be empty, and can be inserted into with the /insert endpoint.
- If a table already exists with the same name, the request will fail.
- Column names in the table can’t start with a special character or a digit.
- Each successful table creation consumes 100 credits.
- To delete a table, you can go to
user settings (dune.com) -> data -> deleteor use the /delete endpoint.
Schema
You need to define the schema of your data by providing schema array of columns in the request. Each column has three parameters:
name: the name of the field
type: the data type of the field
nullable: if the column is nullable (true/false, true by default)
Authorizations

The name of the table to create. Must begin with a lowercase letter and contain only lowercase letters, digits, and underscores.
An ordered list of columns that define the table schema. Cannot be empty.
If true, the table will be private. If private it is only visible to the team or user that your API key is associated with.
