## About the data table

In the data table, each row represents an event and each field represents a data value correctly recognized by Devo. If the data is not separated in several fields or is shown in the** unknown** tag structure of the search view, it is normally due to missing or incorrect tags. Learn more about tags [in this article](https://devodocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/latest/pages/95126204).

The data displayed in the table will change according to the operations you apply to build your query (filters, new fields...). Learn more about building queries [here](https://devodocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/latest/pages/94764880).
