Hi,

I know this question is going to seem silly. I have a little bit of python knowledge from my college about a year ago. I am just playing around with the form ddx brick(Havent changed any code in it yet as I am just learning JS) . How do I change the name of the dataset? I've gone through the JS and I've tried changing many things and nothing has changed the name of the dataset from '
form_data_0477'

Thank you in advance

    DDX Bricks are pre-compiled Domo apps. Because of this the dataset names are pre-defined in the manifest file used to generate the bricks. These can't be changed in a DDX brick. If you want to go an additional level deeper in the development stack you can do a custom app which allows you to define the datasets and names used in your specific app but can be a bit more technical.
