I'm not a developer. I'm trying to create a page where a logged in user could see a page showing the financial performance of his portfolio. The page would contain text, wpdatatables, wpdatacharts. The data is coming from a csv file hosted on a google drive. Each user has a different csv file with the filename containing a unique user ID (12345) and a date (yyyymmdd). How can I get the tables to select the proper csv file, and publish it on a page so that the logged in user would only see his portfolio, some data contained in the csv file and a chart using data coming from the same file. Thanks.
In your case you will need to use the 2nd option and enable option Users can see and edit their own data. Because the 1st option can not achieve this.
The only problem is that the all file changes must be done within the plugin.
Example: If you made a table with the 2nd option, then the table will be created in the database, and all changes to the file ( for example on your drive with the CSV file) will not be applied to the table because you will then need to work with the table within our plugin, so unfortunately something that you required below can not be achieved with our plugin built in features at the moment.

Hi Max,
Thank you for your inquire.
We have 2 options when creating tables from CSV file
1. Create a table linked to an existing data source.
2. Create a table by importing data from data source.
In your case you will need to use the 2nd option and enable option Users can see and edit their own data. Because the 1st option can not achieve this.
The only problem is that the all file changes must be done within the plugin.
Example: If you made a table with the 2nd option, then the table will be created in the database, and all changes to the file ( for example on your drive with the CSV file) will not be applied to the table because you will then need to work with the table within our plugin, so unfortunately something that you required below can not be achieved with our plugin built in features at the moment.
Best regards.
