Selecting prefix for conflicting field names
When joining datasets, Domo alerts you to any conflicts in the naming. Specifically, any common field names have to be renamed. It defaults to using the name of the originating dataset as a prefix. We use longish, descriptive dataset names, and the narrow, static width of the editing line makes renaming very tedious. Is there a way to override the use of the dataset name and provide a different prefix?

Hello,
You could use a Select Columns tile and rename the columns before the Join Data column. This will allow you to have more room to rename and not have to contend with the default name value.
