Pandoc : How to add a table before the table of content?

Question

I would like to add a table before the table of content generated by pandoc/markdown.

I've found the parameter "include-before". With this, I can add text before the table of content. But is there a way to add a table ?

Show my code below. I would like the toc to be between the two tables and the header1 and not before the tables.

Is there another way to achieve that ? I would like to use only one file for the generation.

Thanks for your help

    \rhead{Doc generator}

There are two options: you can either use the include-before field, it works for text as well as for lists or tables. Just make sure to indent the table.

---
toc: true
toc-title: Table des matières
include-before: |
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    **VERSION**  **DATE**      **MODIFICATION**                **AUTHOR**
    -----------  ------------- ------------------------------- -----------
    1.0          20-12-2018    Initial                         DGO

Alternatively, you can disable pandoc's toc mechanism and manually add the LaTeX commands to generate the table of contents at the desired location:

---
geometry: margin=1in
fontfamily: qbookman
numbersections: true
toc: false
header-includes: |
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    \usepackage{fancyhdr}
    \pagestyle{fancy}
    \setlength\headheight{20pt}
    \lhead{\includegraphics[width=4cm]{C:/logo.png}}
    \rhead{Doc generator}

| **Customer**  | Customer \
