## Noon question, is there a feature that enables data validation on columns. Ie. a column can only be populated with values from a list?

#### Column type - “SingleSelect” allows you to define values that a column could take. And you can select one amongst the defined values when inserting or updating corresponding column

#### 

#### If you wish to select multiple values from a list, you can try “MultiSelect” column type.
