Hi everyone,

I'm working in Ignition Perspective and trying to bind a table to a query result, but the data doesn’t show up in the table component.  
so what I did is created a direct SQL query binding on `props.data` of the Perspective table.  
SELECT \* FROM inventory

- The query runs fine in the Database Query Browser, and returns rows.
- The database connection is valid.
- The `Binding Preview` in the property editor shows `...` (no rows).

What am I missing? Is there a better way to display SQL query results in a Perspective table?
