## Response `200`

Successful response

- DataTable: Represents a custom data table that can store arbitrary rows. For example, poll services use data tables to store a row for each response. DataTables are schemaless -- each row simply stores custom variables. Each variable name is equivalent to a different "column" of the data table. Telerivet refers to these variables/columns as "fields", and automatically creates a new field for each variable name used in a row of the table.
  - `id` string: ID of the data table
  - `name` string: Name of the data table
  - `num_rows` integer: Number of rows in the table. For performance reasons, this number may sometimes be out-of-date.
  - `show_add_row` boolean: Whether to allow adding or importing rows via the web app
  - `show_stats` boolean: Whether to show summary charts (pie charts, bar charts, tables of top values) for this data table in the web app
  - `show_contact_columns` boolean: Whether to show 'Contact Name' and 'Phone Number' columns in the web app
  - `vars` object: Custom variables stored for this data table. Variable names may be up to 32 characters in length and can contain the characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and _. Values may be strings, numbers, or boolean (true/false). String values may be up to 4096 bytes in length when encoded as UTF-8. Up to 100 variables are supported per object. Setting a variable to null will delete the variable.
  - `solution_id` string, nullable: ID of the solution that this data table belongs to, if any
