Many of my friends use it to generate copy and organize materials in batches. What used to take an entire afternoon can now be done in just a few minutes.

This is Lark Multidimensional Table.

Unlike regular spreadsheets, it's more like a combination of "database + workflow + ... AI"It's all stuffed into a form. When you open it for the first time, you might not know where to start."

In this article, I'll guide you through the basics of Lark multidimensional spreadsheets in three steps:

• What is Lark Multidimensional Table?
• What are the uses of Lark Multidimensional Tables?
• How to use Lark Multidimensional Tables

Let's take a look together.

The underlying layer of Lark Multidimensional Tables is aOnline databaseThe surface is in table form. AI Workflow building tools.

Unlike traditional Excel, in Lark Multidimensional Tables, each column is a...FieldsThis is used to define what the data in this column is, how it is presented, and how the system should understand and process it. It can be text, options, dates, hyperlinks, etc.

Each line is a complete and independent one.RecordEvery value and date we need to record exists as a row in the table.

Fields define the structure, rows carry the data, and the two are combined to form a single sheet.Data table.

Lark Multidimensional Tables' true multidimensional capabilities come from...viewThe same data table can be transformed into 6 different forms!

In table view, we see a row-and-column structure, suitable for entering, organizing, and aligning information; switching to Kanban view allows for more intuitive process management, with direct drag-and-drop card updates; switching to calendar view displays all dated records.automaticOnce the schedule is set for the corresponding days, it's very clear which days are busy and which days are free.

In addition to these views, multidimensional tables also offer a higher-dimensional presentation method—Dashboard.

It extracts the key data from the table and creates visual charts, statistical cards, and trend lines. We don't need to reorganize it; just drag and drop the components, and the core metrics of the entire business can be seen at a glance.

This is also the charm of Lark Multidimensional Tables:

There is only one set of data, but it can be presented in six different views plus one dashboard, which can be switched at will..

Switching views does not change the data itself, but only changes how it is interpreted. Modifying the data in any view will be synchronized in real time in other views.

In multidimensional tables, many things don't require us to monitor them manually.

We set the trigger conditions, such as each time a new record is added.AI At onceautomaticGenerate summary; task due date,automaticRemind the person in charge: Every Friday before the end of the workday,automaticCompile weekly reports.

In short, Lark Multidimensional Table is a table-like application that can be used as a database and is reliable... AI Batch workintelligentThe tools are easy for ordinary people to use with zero barriers.

After understanding what Lark Multidimensional Tables are, the second question naturally becomes:What exactly can it do for me??

SimpleThe value of Lark Multidimensional Spreadsheet lies in putting all the scattered information, repetitive processes, and collaborative tasks in your work into a self-sustaining system.

• Data Management

For example, when I work in the self-media industry, the most troublesome thing is that each platform has its own backend, each video has its own page, and I have to search for data every time I review the content.

Lark Multidimensional Tables makes this very easySimpleI created a single data summary table, putting all the views, interactions, completion rates, and conversions for all accounts into one table. What used to take an entire afternoon to do can now be done in two minutes with a few clicks of the mouse.

• Data visualization

Lark Multidimensional Tables can directly generate dashboards. Simply fill the table with data, and it will...automaticIdentify key indicators and generate trend, percentage, and statistical cards.

• Data Analysis

Lark Multidimensional Tables also supportsOne-clickintelligentAnalyze, click on it.AI automaticIt helps you break down data trends, anomalies, and correlations.

• Collaboration Management

All tasks, statuses, and responsible person information are placed in the same table, making it very clear who is doing what, what step they have reached, and whether there are any bottlenecks.

Most importantly, once the status changes, the entire team synchronizes in real time, eliminating the need to ask or guess.

• automaticProcess

We've set up the trigger conditions, so we don't need to monitor many things. For example, notify me when there's a new entry in the table; notify me every day at 5 PM...automaticSend me a summary of your work for the day.

• AI Batch processing

If you've ever worked in content creation, you know what repetitive, tedious work is: revising dozens of headlines, categorizing hundreds of comments, and cleaning the format of a list of links. Nobody wants to do it, but it's something you have to do.

Lark Multidimensional Tables AI Batch processing can handle all these types of tasks in one go.

We add to any field AI Shortcuts, let AI It helps us extract, clean, rewrite, and summarize, all in one go. What used to take an entire afternoon can now be finished with the click of a button.

Now that we've explained what it can do, we can finally get started.

The logic is very...Simple:Create table → Add fields → Add data → Data visualization → automaticchange.

Clicking "Create New Multidimensional Table" will generate a basic table.

We just learned that each column here is a field. Fields determine how data is stored and how it is understood.

Below I will use the mostSimpletake you in this wayfastLet's learn about some of the most commonly used fields:

• Record information fields: text, numbers, attachments, hyperlinks... These fields are responsible for entering information and are the most basic and commonly used.
• Process management: Single choice, multiple choice, date, personnel... It's clear at a glance what stage the project is in and who is responsible.
• Data relationship classes: association, lookup and summary... allowing table A to reference table B, and connecting data from multiple tables into a system.
• Field shortcuts: Add shortcuts to any field AI Abilities, such as allowing AI Extracting information, categorizing and summarizing, and also...One-clickBatch processing of entire columns of data.

We create fields based on what we want to record.

For example, when creating a self-media topic library, we can first create fields such as inspiration, theme, and reference videos.

Let's add some data:

Click "Generate Form" in the upper right corner, and Lark Multidimensional Table will generate an online form based on the current fields. After setting the required fields, we can share the form with our partners to submit topic ideas. Each submission adds a new row of information to the database.

As data accumulates, we can switch between various views to make the data clearer at a glance.

For example, the task dashboard can clearly show what topics are available, whether they are text/images or videos, and who submitted the task.Drag the card to change its state.It's very convenient.

There is a [something] in the upper right corner of Lark Multidimensional Table. AI The button, click it, canletAI Help us perform some operations, such as generating a dashboard based on a data table..

The more data available, the more intuitive the results.

After the table is set up, I want to add one more.automaticThe process is streamlined, and I can receive a notification message whenever a new topic is updated in the spreadsheet.

Click the little robot icon in the upper right corner to access settings.automaticStreamline the process. For example, here I've set it up so that when there's a new record in the "Little Inspiration" field, it will send me an internal message via Lark Multidimensional Table.

Of course, we can also set up scheduled tasks, such as every day at 5 pm.automaticSummarize the day's work.

Both the trigger conditions and the actions after triggering can be customized, making it highly playable.

Lark Multidimensional Tables are indeed very...powerfulWhat I've discussed in this article is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to its capabilities. Many details and usage methods haven't been fully explored yet, but if this article helps you get started smoothly and understand what Lark Multidimensional Tables can do and how to begin using it, then writing it will have been worthwhile.

Once you actually get your hands on it, you'll find it's far more interesting than what's presented in the article. Many mundane tasks that we thought we could only do ourselves can be easily accomplished by Lark Multidimensional Spreadsheet.automaticFinish.

We don't need to become experts or learn coding; we just need to make programming with Lark multi-dimensional tables a new work habit.By structuring information and systematizing tasks, efficiency will inevitably change.

Previously, to manage structured data, we had to know Excel advanced functions or create a...Simpledatabase.

Multidimensional tables reduce database creation to a click-based process, making fields, table relationships, and data relationships all visualized.

For ordinary people, this is akin to a dimensional reduction attack.

AI Workflow is no longer just a feature to play with; it will become a standard feature for all knowledge-based jobs.

The future of work will most likely look like this: people are responsible for setting the direction.AI Responsible for execution.
