Hi!

Is it possible to retrieve dataset column description and tags through the API (or PyDomo or rdomo)?

Thanks,

Carlos

    You can pull this information using the Domo Governance dataset: Dataset Schemas with Tags. This report includes the column tags and descriptions.

    If I solved your problem, please select "yes" above

    You can pull this via the Domo Governance Datasets Connector and pull the Dataset Schemas report. It will list all columns in the datasets and the description for each column.

    I misread your request. The column descriptions aren't available in the metadata datasets. pydomo doesn't return the column descriptions when requesting the dataset metadata, just the name, and the type.
