If I am currently using Google Sheets as my data source and want to move up to Big Tables, is there an easy transition path, or do I have to redo all the application from scratch with Big Tables as the data source.

Is there an easy way to migrate ?

You should be able to import a csv into your big table… next you’ll need to remap the old columns to the new ones… go column by column on the GSheet table(s) and use “Find all uses” and replace the old columns with new.

You’ll have to recreate any computed columns that lived in the GSheet table(s) as well.

There are some limitations to big tables so be sure to check out the documentation.
