Each field is shown twice in the analysis app #1

Open serjko opened 1 year ago

Hi there - I am testing this awesome automation and upon running it for a couple of apps, I noticed that the resulting analysis apps show every field in the data model twice. Most attributes are the same for both versions of the field but one copy shows up with a Used flag while the other appears with no flag (although both versions show the same counts for used in objects, master measures, etc.). This creates some confusion for the users and is likely inflating the stats around potential RAM savings.

Would appreciate some help with troubleshooting the issue.

Hi @serjko, I am unable to replicate this. I just ran the automation on two separate applications and am not seeing any duplicated fields anywhere in the output of the automation or the resulting analysis app. Could you perhaps be more specific in where you are seeing this? I will leave this open until I hear more information that I can use to do further testing before closing.

@danielpilla - Thanks for looking into this.

I also run the automation on a couple of apps and I see dupe fields in the resulting analysis apps. Notably, I see unique fields in the reports generated as direct output of the automation.

Attached is a screen of how I see the fields in one of the analysis apps and I also exported the automation from our tenant. Appreciate your help in getting to the bottom of the issue.
