"best" way to find out which field name changed to break card...
When the name of a field changes on the underlying dataset and "Breaks" the card... it just gives you the orange box indicating that a field is missing... but doesn't tell you which one. Has anyone figured out a "good" way to identify which field is the problem field?
thanks,
Jeff

That box should indicate which fields are missing. If not, then I think the culprit is typically buried in a beastmode field or was selected as the summary number.
Interested to hear what any other users have come up with for this...

A good way to evaluate dataset schema changes is by using the "Domo Governance Datasets" connector available in the app store. You can download the report called "Dataset Schemas" wich downloads a list of All datasets present in your Domo instance along with every single columns/fields info for every dataset.
I have mine running once a day and if you set it as append method , you can run comparisons using the "Batch_Last_Run" ... this would allow you to see all columns in a dataset as of any date, so if a column is changed/removed, the next time it runs you will easily identify what and when something changed in the schema. does it make sense ?
Not only if it a field is removed but also added or if the column type changed
Domo Arigato!
