Highest priority. Critical issue. Will be fixed prior to next release.
type: feature request
'Nice-to-have' improvement, new feature or different behavior or design.
Currently we allow for casting through YAML after an aggregation is complete. For example, we can do a
CAST(SUM(column))
.We should be able to also cast the field before any aggregations/functions are applied like so:
SUM(CAST(column))
. We can do this through calculated fields. Currently calc fields only support the default cast to string. This should be configurable.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
