I've been using XD for a couple weeks now. For the most part I'm quite impressed. It's as if Adobe has been secretly recording my thoughts about how a useful prototyping tool should work.
My familiarity with Illustrator makes this tool seem quite natural to me.
However, there's a capability that is missing: at least I've not found it yet. For that matter, it's always been missing from Illustrator as well.
I'm talking tables. While the table tool works okay in InDesign, the fact it's missing from Xd is a shock.
My prototyping involves displaying large amounts to tabular data. The repeat grid tool is not sufficient for handling the volume of data.
Seems like the table tool from InDesign could be used?

Thank you for the feedback. Let me check with the team and get back to you. I am guessing that the reason for this is because the status is set to action-required.

I'm here looking for a table tool of some kind. Do I have to use a plugin at this point?

The closest plugin I know of is https://googlesheetsforadobexd.impekable.com/ which might be enough to solve your need.
I have always just used repeat grids for my tables.

On December 2, 2022, I tried that link, and the edgidesign.com website is dead.
