Grid fields displaying when fields removed from Datashape TWX 9.1

[VaibhavShinde]

Hi ,

after bindings done to Grid in Mashup. i wanted to remove one field from Datashape which is connected with Grid. anyway i removed specific field from DataShape but facing below issues..

1. Still deleted fields are showing in Grid.

2. Not showing at 'Configure Grid Column' of grid . but Showing at Grid in Composer or Runtime.

FYI-I tried reloading the page and reloading the bindings.

Thanks

Hi @VaibhavShinde,

Indeed if you have an infotable property based on that DataShape and that contains values, those values will not be affected by the changes made to the DataShape. You may run a service like the following on your Thing to remove the field from the existing infotable property :

me.Property_name.RemoveField("Field_name");

or, if you have added a field to your DataShape :

me.Property_name.AddField({ "name": "Field_name", "baseType": "STRING" });

You can also refer to : https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Can-t-update-the-datashape-of-an-existing-infotable-with-data/td-p/702673?posno=19&q=delete%20field%20datashape&source=search

Hi @c_lowy 

I am not using Infotable property. its a datatable (has datashape) ..and already datatable's data binds to Grid. but i wanted remove one field and i removed from Datashape but still its appearing at Grid design and runtime but also not showing at 'Configure grid columns'. please see below snaps.

Thanks
