The data table is the default view when you first open the data workbench. The data table is where you can see all of your data, specify the columns of information you want to display, and define filters to limit the dataset to the assets you are most interested in. All objects that you have permissions for will be displayed in the data workbench the first time you go to it. Each column in the data workbench represents either standard attributes, indicator types including the indicator icon and semantic value, roles showing the name of the person 
or organization 
fulfilling the role, or extended attributes.
The column structure and filter settings are persistent and will be displayed when you return to the data workbench, but you can change them at any time. Click 
> Switch to Default View to return to the default settings.
