Feeding in a list of dictionaries is supported, though in general DataTables are set up to support objects, so you may have to do a little extra work to get the data from the dict lookup instead of an attribute on the dict. As far as your specific question about ids, take a look at the get_object_id and get_object_display methods on the table, which you'll definitely want to override:

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/ref/tables.html#horizon.tables.DataTable.get_object_id
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/ref/tables.html#horizon.tables.DataTable.get_object_display

All the best,
