Support for Importing Data into Existing Tables
Problem
Currently, we only support creating a new table when a CSV or TSV file is imported. This limits the user's ability to append/store/view data from multiple files in one place. We would want to add support for importing data into existing tables to allow users to import data into existing tables seamlessly.
Proposed solution
To implement the above we will use a mix of already implemented APIs with some tweaks and implementation of some additional API endpoints along with some methods to accompany them.
