Hi,
we have a ds that i want to change to a new ds.
the new ds has the same columns as old one but is defined differently.
the new one is defined as extract with physical tables
while the old one is extract with logical table.
in the old one we had column names that we have changed their name.
for example:
the name in the database: column_test -> Column Test (automatically changed) -> Column test (manually changed)
the new ds is updated using hypper api in python. im getting the same structure as in th old one.
however when i switch datasources there are errors because some fields are not recognizable.
Column test (old ds) <> Column Test (new ds)
Is there a way to update the new ds to show the same field names not in a manual way?
is there some api that can read the field name and remote field name from the datasource?
thank you,
Michael
Do you still need help with this ? I don't know of an API, I would usually use Tableau Desktop to replace data source, but that also assumes that when there are field name changes that you know where the changes are.
