Sometimes, the best way to store data involved in a workflow is within the workflow itself. For instance, if you want to embed a look-up table instead of hosting it in a database or shared data locker, or if you'd like to analyze a table on your clipboard, you can make use of the tool.

Example - Paste a Wikipedia Table

Other Sources

For example, if you're doing some research on Wikipedia and find some data you'd like to analyze in Cascade, you can copy the data table into your computer's clipboard and paste it in the first cell of the tool, using the appropriate paste hotkey (Ctrl+V, Command+V, etc.).

The column names and data types can then be configured in the tool configuration of the tool in the left-hand panel.

It's important to note that data held in a tool will not be refreshed unless manually updated by the user.
