Tableau Extension API : Column name change with current language | Add property "fieldId" to "Field" class #568

Description

@apiveteau

Hello !
I work on Dashboard & Viz extension in Tableau, and we use Tableau Extension API 1.12.0-pre.16

Is it possible to add the property fieldId in the Field class ?
I try to get the original name of the data source columns (not the translation result) to make it persistent through multiple users with many different languages.
I would like to link "Field" class with "Column" class returned by

The property exist in Column class (like Columns in sources returned by getAllPagesAsync())

But it don't in Field list returned by getDataSourcesAsync:

let dataSource = await tableauWorksheet.getDataSourcesAsync()[0]
// Fields
let { fields } = dataSource;

Version information:

  • Tableau version: 2024.2
  • Tableau Extension API 1.12.0-pre.16

Thanks a lot for any help on this <3
