Question wording to be included in the .hyper and not the field/ column name #18

Closed akahure closed 3 years ago

akahure commented 3 years ago

The resultant .hyper brings the dataset by Field/column “name” which is most of the time is just a question code (e.g: SB01). For better convenience, and even to leverage Tableau “Ask Data” tool, columns (data points) need to be in full question wording (the label in ODK) rather than question name. (adding an option that allows choosing “names” or “labels” will be super useful.)

Hi @akahure,

I kindly ask you to give this request a high priority as it's really needed for the reason mentioned above as well as for allowing us to keep using the already built Tableau Dashboards, which are quite a lot. At the moment, we can't put the developed connector in use unless this option is implemented. Pushing this foward to get it implemented the soonest is highly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance. Ibrahim
