Hi all,

Using Insights in 8203 and 8205 it automatically pulls in the Title value for each field. This is used when selecting fields to be displayed.

Can we setup insights to display the description or the name of a field instead? That would be really helpful for us.

Context: We use cluster synonyms and each segment's titles are not unique. This means the insight shows the same title multiple times. While we can hover over each to see the full path of the field, this doesn't help end users who aren't in the DB all the time.

Thanks in advance!

Dan

I believe Insight by default shows TITLE and if a column doesn't have a a TITLE then it shows FIELDNAME. DESCRIPTION doesn't seem to be available. You might want to open a case with IB tech support to find out if this is something you can do through configuration.
