A Repeating Rows field type (often called a Repeater field or Repeating Section) is a dynamic data container that allows users to add multiple instances of a group of sub-fields to a single record. It is commonly used in forms, CMS platforms, and databases to manage “one-to-many” relationships without needing a separate database table for every detail. How It Works
Unlike standard fields (like a single text box), a repeating rows field acts as a template.
Sub-fields: You define a set of fields (e.g., Name, Date, Amount) within the repeater.
Dynamic Addition: When filling out the form, users can click an “Add Row” button to generate a new set of those exact fields as many times as needed.
Structured Storage: The data is typically saved as an array or a JSON object, keeping all related entries tied to the parent record. Common Use Cases Specify nested and repeated columns in table schemas
