    Interface TableauDimensionColumn

    A column read as a category: what a reader navigates between.

    interface TableauDimensionColumn {
        column: TableauColumn;
        viewIndex: number;
        caption: string;
        numeric: boolean;
        temporal: boolean;
        role: "dimension";
    }

    Properties

    viewIndex: number

    Index into a TableauRow — i.e. the column's position in the original view-order column list, dropped columns included. Dropping a column never shifts the columns after it.

    caption: string

    Human-facing name: the aggregation wrapper unwrapped where possible.

    numeric: boolean

    Whether dataType is one of Tableau's numeric types.

    temporal: boolean

    Whether the column carries a date or date-time.

    role: "dimension"
