Beta release notice: The Advanced Table Viewer
While we strive to deliver a seamless experience, some features are subject to change, and minor issues can arise. We encourage you to explore the macro and share your feedback to help us improve the final release. Thank you for your support and understanding! |
What’s in the beta release?
The macro currently supports importing data only from the CSV data connector.
We have included a simplified version of the two formatting features, Sorting and Sum-up.
Beta limitations:
The Sum-up option in beta provides only sum and average calculation and is applicable only for columns with numeric data.
Future enhancements:
Future releases will support additional data sources, such as JSON.
The macro will support more advanced options to interact with your data, such as text filtering, searching in the table, exporting, and more.
Pre-requisite: Profiles and configuration
✅ The Advanced Table Viewer macro imports data from data sources using profiles. It currently supports the CSV data connector.
✅ Make sure you have access to the required profiles, or contact your Administrator to define them. To configure profiles, refer to Configuration-Cloud.
