Numeric Fields as Columns in Zendesk Explore
Why are numeric fields not available as standard columns in Zendesk Explore?
Numeric fields are not available as standard columns in Zendesk Explore because they are categorized as Metrics. Metrics are designed for calculations like sums and averages, rather than for listing or filtering data directly.
If you need to use numeric fields as columns, you can convert them into attributes by creating a Standard Calculated Attribute. This allows you to use them in Rows, Columns, and Filters, providing more flexibility in your reports.
