    Hi, just checked out Uncanny Automator. Looks really cool and seems to be abe to do amazing things ??

    I just wonder, why is there a tab that displays all database tables? Seems unnecessary to do so so:

    1. Why are the database tables shown?
    2. Does Uncanny Automator access all datatable data?
    3. Does Uncanny Automator store the datatable data anywhere else or even share it with another 3rd party?

    Thank you ??

    Hi @melaniesinmek ,

    Good questions!

    It sounds like you’re talking about the Automator > Status and Automator > Status > Tools page. The primary use of status report is for support purposes, so if you run into an issue, you’ll see key environment details there. If you raise a ticket with us, we may ask for these details, but that information would never be sent to us automatically. If you’re asking why we include table details in the report, it’s useful for us to know if any tables are extremely large, if they’re empty but shouldn’t be, missing entirely, etc.

    The Tools page, on the other hand, shows our tables and views specifically, and if there are issues, it will let you know and offer repair options. You can also drop views from this page, which can make migrations easier (then rebuild them after a migration).

    If you use our app-based integrations, like Google Sheets, Slack, Facebook, etc., then your data would have to go through an API, but that’s data you’re actively choosing to send to an outside party in the recipe. For anything WordPress-only, then no, certainly none of your user data, post data, etc. is sent outside the site.

    I’ll tentatively mark this as closed, but let us know if you have more questions.
