# Data Table Hooks - Admin Components

These hooks are available since Medusa [v2.21.0](https://github.com/medusajs/medusa/releases/tag/v2.21.0).

The data table hooks build the columns, filters, query parameters, and empty state of a [DataTable](https://docs.medusajs.com/ui/components/data-table) component. The Medusa Admin uses them in its list pages, such as the sales channels list, to keep tables consistent across the dashboard.

```tsx
import {
  useDataTableDateColumns,
  useDataTableDateFilters,
  useSalesChannelTableColumns,
  useSalesChannelTableEmptyState,
  useSalesChannelTableFilters,
  useSalesChannelTableQuery,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"
```

***

## useDataTableDateColumns

The `useDataTableDateColumns` hook returns the sortable `created_at` and `updated_at` columns of a data table. Each column shows the formatted date and a tooltip with the date and time, both translated to the Medusa Admin's active language.

### Example

Append the date columns to your table's own columns:

```tsx
import {
  useDataTableDateColumns,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"
import { createDataTableColumnHelper } from "@medusajs/ui"
import { useMemo } from "react"

const columnHelper = createDataTableColumnHelper()

const useColumns = () => {
  const dateColumns = useDataTableDateColumns()

  return useMemo(
    () => [
      columnHelper.accessor("name", {
        header: "Name",
        enableSorting: true,
      }),
      ...dateColumns,
    ],
    [dateColumns]
  )
}
```

The hook's type parameter is the table's row type, which must have the `created_at` and `updated_at` properties. For example, use `useDataTableDateColumns<HttpTypes.AdminProduct>()`.

### Returns

Returns a `DataTableColumnDef<TData>[]` with the `created_at` and `updated_at` column definitions, in that order. Both columns have sorting enabled. Pass them in the `columns` prop of the `DataTable` component. `TData` is the type of a single row in the table.

***

## useDataTableDateFilters

The `useDataTableDateFilters` hook returns the `created_at` and `updated_at` filters of a data table. Each filter has the presets today, last seven days, last thirty days, last ninety days, and last twelve months, along with a custom range option.

### Example

Append the date filters to your table's own filters:

```tsx
import {
  useDataTableDateFilters,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"
import { createDataTableFilterHelper } from "@medusajs/ui"
import { useMemo } from "react"

const filterHelper = createDataTableFilterHelper()

const useFilters = () => {
  const dateFilters = useDataTableDateFilters()

  return useMemo(
    () => [
      filterHelper.accessor("status", {
        label: "Status",
        type: "radio",
        options: [
          { label: "Draft", value: "draft" },
          { label: "Published", value: "published" },
        ],
      }),
      ...dateFilters,
    ],
    [dateFilters]
  )
}
```

The applied filters are set as query parameters whose values are JSON strings, such as `{"$gte":"2025-04-01T00:00:00.000Z"}`. Parse them with `JSON.parse` before you send them to the Medusa backend.

### Parameters

- disableRangeOption: (\`boolean\`) Whether to remove the custom range option, so that the user can only choose one of the presets.

### Returns

Returns a `DataTableFilter[]` with the `created_at` and `updated_at` filter definitions, in that order. Pass them in the `filters` prop of the `DataTable` component.

***

## useSalesChannelTableColumns

The `useSalesChannelTableColumns` hook returns the columns of a sales channels data table. The Medusa Admin uses it in the sales channels list page and in the forms that select a product's sales channels.

### Example

```tsx
import { DataTable } from "@medusajs/dashboard/components"
import {
  useSalesChannels,
  useSalesChannelTableColumns,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"

const SalesChannelTable = () => {
  const columns = useSalesChannelTableColumns()
  const { sales_channels, count, isPending } =
    useSalesChannels()

  return (
    <DataTable
      data={sales_channels ?? []}
      columns={columns}
      rowCount={count}
      getRowId={(row) => row.id}
      isLoading={isPending}
    />
  )
}
```

### Returns

Returns a `DataTableColumnDef<HttpTypes.AdminSalesChannel>[]` with the sortable `name`, `description`, and `is_disabled` columns, followed by the `created_at` and `updated_at` columns of the `useDataTableDateColumns` hook. The `is_disabled` column renders a status cell that shows whether the sales channel is enabled or disabled.

***

## useSalesChannelTableFilters

The `useSalesChannelTableFilters` hook returns the filters of a sales channels data table.

### Example

```tsx
import { DataTable } from "@medusajs/dashboard/components"
import {
  useSalesChannelTableColumns,
  useSalesChannelTableFilters,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"

const SalesChannelTable = ({ salesChannels, count }) => {
  const columns = useSalesChannelTableColumns()
  const filters = useSalesChannelTableFilters()

  return (
    <DataTable
      data={salesChannels}
      columns={columns}
      filters={filters}
      rowCount={count}
      getRowId={(row) => row.id}
    />
  )
}
```

### Returns

Returns a `DataTableFilter[]` with an `is_disabled` radio filter that has the enabled and disabled options, followed by the `created_at` and `updated_at` filters of the `useDataTableDateFilters` hook.

***

## useSalesChannelTableQuery

The `useSalesChannelTableQuery` hook reads the sales channel table's query parameters from the URL and returns the parameters to pass to the list sales channels request.

### Example

```tsx
import {
  useSalesChannels,
  useSalesChannelTableQuery,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"

const PAGE_SIZE = 20

const SalesChannelTable = () => {
  const searchParams = useSalesChannelTableQuery({
    pageSize: PAGE_SIZE,
  })

  const { sales_channels, count } =
    useSalesChannels(searchParams)

  // ...
}
```

The hook reads the `offset`, `q`, `order`, `created_at`, `updated_at`, and `is_disabled` query parameters, and it parses the values that aren't strings.

### Parameters

The hook accepts an object with the following properties:

- prefix: (\`string\`) A prefix for the table's query parameters. Pass it when the page has more than one table, so that each table has its own query parameters.
- pageSize: (\`number\`) The number of sales channels per page, which the hook sets as the request's \`limit\`. The default value is \`20\`.

### Returns

Returns an `HttpTypes.AdminSalesChannelListParams` object with the query parameters of the list sales channels request, including `limit`, `offset`, `q`, `order`, `created_at`, `updated_at`, and `is_disabled`.

***

## useSalesChannelTableEmptyState

The `useSalesChannelTableEmptyState` hook returns the translated empty state content of a sales channels data table.

### Example

```tsx
import { DataTable } from "@medusajs/dashboard/components"
import {
  useSalesChannelTableColumns,
  useSalesChannelTableEmptyState,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/hooks"

const SalesChannelTable = ({ salesChannels, count }) => {
  const columns = useSalesChannelTableColumns()
  const emptyState = useSalesChannelTableEmptyState()

  return (
    <DataTable
      data={salesChannels}
      columns={columns}
      rowCount={count}
      getRowId={(row) => row.id}
      emptyState={emptyState}
    />
  )
}
```

### Returns

Returns a `DataTableEmptyStateProps` object with an `empty` property, shown when the store has no sales channels, and a `filtered` property, shown when the applied filters match no sales channels. Each has a `heading` and a `description`.
