Re: Creating a Manager Span of Control Chart
Are you requiring it to be in a tabular format? You could get something similar with a Sankey chart where you'd just need your data to have two columns:
Boss Title | Report Title

@NathanDorsch Try this: .*RMP.*
For future reference is a great resource to test whether your Regex works as expected
Re: Question of how to mark or pass data for certain amount of records
Hi @mhouk
I built a Magic ETL that will get you pretty close to what you are looking for
1st on your data add a column and name it "ROW" that states the row number in your data.
2nd open a magic etl and copy/paste the code attached
3rd connect your input and name your output
4th run it and review the results
your output should look like this (the highlighted columns are your original fields in the spreadsheet)
How to delete rows from an input dataset and replace the dataset
I was trying to use SQL transformations, but I cannot make the output dataset the same as the input dataset. Could someone help?
Re: How to delete rows from an input dataset and replace the dataset
Thank you for the detailed explanation. I did not know about the DELETE command, and that was very helpful.
While this is a significant improvement from what I thought I could do, there's still this issue that remains:
The new data that comes in is never obsolete. Its only after a certain time that it becomes obsolete. That means that I cannot instantly do operations on incoming data, rather I have to store it in a dataset, and keep running delete statements on that to remove unwanted data.
So while my end output in purged, there is this huge dataset in the middle that I still have to maintain.
Any idea on how I can reduce the size of the middle dataset as well?
How to purge data from an existing dataset via API?
Hello Domo experts,
We are trying to find a way to use the API, or other non-UI approach, to purge all the data from any existing Domo dataset.
A little background may help...
Our company (Anonomatic) provides an add-on to Domo called PII Vault. What it enables is for Domo customers to get full Domo functionality but never have to load customer/patient/etc. personal identifiers (PII) into Domo.
That process works just find and we have healthcare and financial services customers happily using it. However, we recently had some requests from our Domo customers to enable them to take data which is already in a Domo dataset (Dataset A) which has PII in it and run it through our process to create Dataset B which will not have PII. Because of what we do, Dataset B can be made available to basically anyone in their organization without worrying about data privacy issues and they can still do everything else they would do with Dataset A.
The problem is that once we create Dataset B, the data in Dataset A is still there and so the data privacy issue is not fully resolved.
Deleting Dataset A is not an option. They have existing jobs that populate it and they do not want to have to change them. Instead, they want our process to run after it is populated and then clean it out once we are done.
So back to my question. Is this possible? We have scoured the Domo API documentation but there does not seem to be any way to delete records from an existing dataset.
We even tried importing a single blank row into the source dataset but because the dataset was not created via API, it cannot be modified via API.
Thank you all,

Great to have another gamer dad on here @GrantStowell ! Looking forward to great conversations.
Re: Beast mode errors in dataset views
It might actually be that your IN does not have a space before it so it is reading accountIN as one thing, when it isn't.
Re: Distinct List_Agg
@NateBI Yes, you can add DISTINCT inside the list_agg function the same as you would to for a distinct count like this:
List_Agg(DISTINCTcustomer_name, ' / ')
