Add multiple scripts to action controls or calculated values

Users of TIBCO Spotfire are constantly looking for ways to trigger one script after the other. There are work arounds for that to "chain" these scripts or data function. The idea is to merge these scripts and data functions as part of the I was th...

In case I have a column define as LongInteger data type, then I create a new function and insert an input parameter as type "Column". We noticed the following: 1. LongInteger is missing in the allowed data type list. 2. I'm not able to select the ...

Add the "pad" function

I would like to see the PAD (and/or LPAD/RPAD) function added to Spotfire. This is a common string function in many other DBMSs and tools. Example use case:I had a data source with one column containing SEQUENCE (i.e. integer 1-15) and another col...

Surface Python warnings without having to enable debugging

I think it would be very helpful for developing data functions if we could surface warnings without involving the debugging feature. Sometimes for instance there is a call to an API and that call may fail; one way of designing the code would be to...
