Advanced grid doesn't work in nested InfoTable

[seanccc]

Hi ,

---Nested InfoTable

I need to display multiple tables in the mashup with ONE server call .  So  I created a data shape and add the fields with data type "InfoTable".   In the mashup , I bind the field to advanced grid instead of "all data", so I call it nested InfoTable. 

---Dynamic columns

I also need the columns of the advanced grid to be dynamic , so I don't set data shape for the InfoTable fields  .  Only advanced grid supports dynamic columns , grid doesn't support it.

But advanced grid does NOT  work  in the combination of Nested InfoTable + Dynamic columns.  It just display the data as Empty lines.  See the summary table and attached image below: 

Is it a known issue ? 

		Dynamic Column		Nest Table
		Yes	No	Yes	No
Dynamic Column	Yes	/	/	Doesn't Work	Works Well
	No	/	/	Works Well	Works Well
Nest Table	Yes	Doesn't Work	Works Well	/	/
	No	Works Well	Works Well	/	/

Sean

Hi @seanccc.

Can you provide some of the entities from your example so we can take a closer look at what you're trying to do?  What version of ThingWorx are you running?

@slangley ,

I still have the issue but also found out a workaround for it.   I'll create a reproducible file later.

@slangley ,

The workaound is to avoid to use the nest table as the server's result  in the mash , instead , use multiple services.
