The **Dynamic Create Data** component creates a [`Data`](/data-types#data) object or [`Message`](/data-types#message) with configurable fields.
Define the table in the **Input Configuration** field, and the component creates corresponding input or output handles in the component.

## Use the Dynamic Create Data component in a flow

The following example demonstrates how to use a **Dynamic Create Data** component to create a structured `Data` or `Message` object from multiple sources.

1. Add the **Dynamic Create Data** component to your flow.

2. To define your data's fields, in the **Input Configuration** field, click <Icon name="Table" aria-hidden="true"/> **Open table**.

3. To add rows to your table, click <Icon name="Plus" aria-hidden="true"/> **Add a new row**.
   Adding a new row creates input and output handles for the **Field Type**.
   For example, if you add a `Text` type field, then`Text` input and output handles are added to the component.
   For each new row, configure the **Field Name** and **Field Type**.

    * **Field Name**: The name of the field used as both the internal key and display label.
    * **Field Type**: The type of input field to create. The type options are:
      * Text: Accepts direct text input or accepts `Text` or `Message` output from other components.
      * Data: Accepts `Data` input from other components.
      * Number: Accepts direct numeric input or accepts `Text` or `Message` outputs from other components.
      * Handle: Accepts `Text`, `Data`, or `Message` output from other components.
      * Boolean: Accepts Boolean values. Cannot accept input from another component.

    For more information, see [Langflow data types](/data-types).
4. Depending on your **Field Type** selections, either connect output from other components to dynamically populate the inputs, or enter values manually in the **Dynamic Create Data** component's fields.

5. Select the desired output type at the component's output port. The component outputs either a [`Data`](/data-types#data) object containing all field values from the component's inputs, or a [`Message`](/data-types#message) containing all field values formatted as a text string.
