What is a Display Value ?

  • Display Value as the name stands is the primary or main value within a row of a table that you generally associate that row with.
  • It should be usually associated with a column which is uniquely identifiable. However, this uniqueness is not enforced at the database level.
  • Before v0.105.0, Display Value was known as Primary Value.

What is the use of Display Value ?

  • Within a spreadsheet, Display Value are always highlighted so that it is easier to recognise what row we are in.
  • And when LinkToAnotherRecord is created between two tables - it is the Display Value that appears in LinkToAnotheRecord column.
