You must install these components FIRST in order to use the Datatable Configuration Helper Flow
Flow Base Components (https://unofficialsf.com/introducing-flowbasecomponents/)
Because the Datatable Configuration Helper uses Metadata APIs, you’ll need to have a Remote Site Setting on the org. If you don’t, you’ll see an error like this:
Metadata Transfer Job Status: Error: "IO Exception: Unauthorized endpoint, please check Setup->Security->Remote site settings. endpoint = https://test35-dev-ed--c.visualforce.com/services/Soap/m/42.0"
To address this, copy the root url from the error message and go to Setup –> Remote Site Settings and create a new setting.
This configures your org to essentially allow applications to run that call out to the internet and then back into the same org via its API endpoints.
