Hi All.
Can I somehow change the default column names in the table?
Big thanks for help.

Hi Jarek,
If it's a table in an element, the column names can be overridden using information templates. How you can do that is explained here: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Basic_Functionality/Protocols_and_templates/Information_templates.html.
Kind regards,
Tom
While there is currently no 'easy' built-in functionality for this, you could achieve the same with a custom operator. I see there's one already available in our catalog.
The same can be achieved by copying over the column to a new one with the concatenation column manipulation, but then you lose information about the type, as a concatenation will always result in a textual column. So I would advice using the custom operator instead.
Note: both are just workarounds for functionality that will be delivered out of the box, at one point.
Hi Tom.
I performed the procedure according to the video link.
How you can see below, it procedure changed the name of the column in the view from DMA agent
Although the column name has changed as below from DMA agent view. Why didn't this refresh on bashboard ?
The dashboard probably retrieves information from the DMA and not directly from the database.
So where could be the problem ?

Big thanks foe answer.

Hi Jarek,
It looks like the information template is not taken into account in dashboards. Feel free to submit a feature suggestion on the following page: https://community.dataminer.services/feature-suggestions/.
The answer of Gilles is a bit more complicated, but would help you to achieve what you want.
This is because the protocol information is cached in GQI. Upon inactivity of GQI or after a DMA restart you should see the new information in Dashboards or Low-Code Apps.
Fyi this protocol cache issue in GQI is also mentioned on our docs: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Advanced_Modules/Dashboards_and_Low_Code_Apps/FAQ/Dashboards_and_Low_Code_Apps_FAQ.html#what-should-i-do-if-i-do-not-see-my-protocol-changes-applied-in-a-gqi-query-result
Hi Tom.
I describe what I noticed after the procedure of video in the thread below
