Grid to database and vice versa

Hi, I’m really glad the Grid functionnality just launched, thanks!

What I’d really like to see now is a way to generate a grid from a database. In particular, I’d like to be able to set up a table view of a given database with the right columns and filters applied, and then turn that view into a grid on a canvas. May be that could be done through an third option when you copy-paste a table in addition to “Create duplicate” and “Connected view”. But of course if I could achieve that by buttoning buttons that would be even more lovely.

And vice versa, when you have a grid that has grown too complex, it could be useful to turn it into a full-blown database.

I could use this a lot as well. To expand on this request, I’d like the capability to paste any data in tabular form into Coda (whether it comes from Excel, Word, Markdown, etc) as a grid. Right now it can only paste as a table if at all.

Found myself in need of this too.
