Info
titleAbout Key and Value Column Names

Column names cannot:

  • start with a digit
  • use underscores as the first or last character

If the file contains any of these characters, they will be replaced by underscores when imported into a data set.

Click on the column actions menu to rename or delete the column. You can also sort how the data is presented by key column values. Sorting does not affect the structure of the data.

Click the row actions menu to add an inline row, duplicate the data row, or delete the row.

Duplicated and newly-added rows are added below the actioned row and are highlighted. 

Click on the edit icon to enable editing values for the row. When in edit mode, the edit icon changes to the save button and the row actions menu icon changes to the cancel button. 

Change the value of the Row # field to change the order when the data is used in SOAtest.
