How to send data from apps to the Uipath flow in bulk?

Hello there! In my app the user will enter 12 readings where each reading will have 5 fields. I could accomplish this by passing arguments to the flow but in that case I would require 12*5=60 arguments which is not an ideal solution. Is there any way in which I could pass these readings through a data table/List/array in a single shot?

As shown in the above screenshot I want to submit the 2 rows data at a time after clicking on Submit.

Any help regarding the same would be totally appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

It can be achieve by multiple ways but according to my suggestion it can be achieve by
→ DataTable.
How?
User enters 12 readings (It will become Rows of Table)
Each reading has 5 fields(It will become columns of Table)

you need to build table by getting data from user before passing process.

Hope so it will be helpful for you.

Thanks @raja.arslankhan but how to create a data table within UiPath apps because currently i’m able to create only app variables of type Text?

@Sameera_Sasanapuri ,

You can’t create data table into Apps. I would say add record into entity one by one and then call into process.

Thanks @Arvind_Kumar1 but currently no access has been given to me to leverage Data Service.
Solution: I figured out that I could pass this data by concatenating values from all fields and sending that one string argument(where we’ve the entire data after conactenation) back to the flow then splitting it later in the flow.
