Excel Connector: show column types before saving the source

betogess

I'm constantly having the problem of uploading an Excel file just to see afterwards that a column that is a date or a number is set up as a string. I think it would be valuable if DOMO showed you the type of column it's recongnizing so you can decide if it's correct and if not go back to the Excel and format it before even saving the source.

Thank you for this idea. I am assigning this to our product manager @Court for review.

@betogess thanks for your submission. We are looking at how we can make it easier to know which types are being cast on things like Web Forms and Excel. This would be a great addition to the excel upload function. Thanks for your insights.
