A dataBlock is similar to a table, but much more powerful. It holds a group of series that scroll together through time, and offers instant graphical views as well.
dataBlocks have two roles in dataZoa:- In the dropZone, they are the natural way to show your account's dataseries.
- As a type of embeddable display, they can be tweaked, published, shared, etc., just like a traditional Chart or Table.

How Series are grouped and ordered in dataBlocks
Within the dropZone
When you drop new data series into your account, the
dropZone
view shows them grouped as dataBlocks.
dataBlocks in the dropZone are formed of series that were:
- Dragged in from the Web as a group, using the dzDot, or
- Manually uploaded as a group
As independent dataBlock displays
Once you save a dataBlock outside the dropZone as a permanent display, use the dataBlock display editor to make changes.
