When using reactive-table you can use a dynamic column which allows you to define a function for a column. You can then use this function to lookup data in another collection.

Example:

{ fieldId: 'someOtherThing', // needs to be unique in your table
  key: 'otherId', // this should be the _id of the other collection you want to "join"
  label: 'Some Label',
  fn: function(_id){
    const otherObject = OtherCollection.findOne(_id);
    if ( otherObject ) return otherObject.someKey;
  }
},
