View Builder - Create views of existing datasets and exclude or rename/alias columns

BABWMajorDOMO

We would like the ability to create different views on top of existing datasets at no extra cost (such as using Magic ETL to rename fields and physically create a new dataset).  We have different groups of analysts building cards using the same underlying datasets but each group doesn't necessarily care about EVERY field in the dataset.  They also might like to have them named differently although the underlying data is the same.

 

It will be useful for renaming DataFusion output dataset fields as well - the Table.Column naming convention can become unwieldy when building cards.
