# How do I populate a table as I&#39;m running a query?

I'm running a large query for thousands of entries and I have to wait for the query to finish before I can repopulate the table. This is probably just because of how I architectured it due to my lack of knowledge on using JS with Retool, but is there a way to populate my table as I go along so I don't have to wait before getting the table?  Thanks.

You should be able to apply the query to a table and it should populate automatically.
