REST API specifying TEXT Data Type

Using the REST API to create data columns in a Table, is there a way to specify that a column will have a data type of the TEXT?

Hi Roy,

Backendless creates data columns in a table when you save an object with properties which didn’t exist before. When tables and columns are created as a result of object persistence, there is no explicit way to request that a column should be of the TEXT type. In that case, it is advised to either create columns in Backendless console in advance, or change the column type in console after you save the first object.
