Hi
Below are two numbered list screens. For Column 1, how does one toggle the view between system generated codes and Display Names?
Hi,
As Display name is a settings against a numbered list, it can only be changed by a workspace admin. A workspace admin can change the display name from "Display Name" property of the list to blank. Once it is blank, system will show the system generated serial nos.
An end user would not be able to do so as this can be done only by workspace admins.
Can you let me know an instance where you want to use this kind of functionality?
Edit:
As @ankit_cheeni suggested, you can achieve this in a module to show/ toggle between system generated serial numbers and display name. However, the dimension can show either one - Display Name or Serial No based on the settings at list level.
Hi @anirudh
I don't think Display name property can be changed by using a formula. Even if you create a boolean to toggle, not sure how you would be able to do so.
Hi @Star ,
Good to hear from you!
When you insert items into a numbered list, it gets the next UID and display name is an optional functionality to alternate the #UID with a text of your choice.
If you do a NAME(ITEM('#E2 Employees')), you will see the numbered list names i.e. the UID so I think you can do that to get to see the #UID.
Note that if you blank out the display name, the list automatically starts showing the UID.
@Star
Yes you can achieve it by driving your display Names with Boolean as @anirudh suggested but you can't do much about it on Lists as setting up your display name is admin feature as mentioned by @anikdas
Here is what you can do
1. Create a Boolean formatted line item.
2. Create a module with one text/list formatted line item & dimensioned by Numbered list. Type the names in this module which should be the display names of your numbered list items
3. Go to the Numbered list and write the formula in Display Name property which will read if your Boolean is checked then only Display Name will be shown else IDs will be shown
Here is the output
When Boolean is Checked
When Boolean is not checked
Note: You can optimize it by having list formatted properties here
Question: Why is the need to do so. End users won't be interested and it will not make any meaning to the end users if you try and show them the UIDs. Can you please help us understand why the need
Thanks,

Hey everyone, I wanted to share the Anaplan Python SDK with you. It's a Python Library that wraps all Anaplan APIs and makes it easier to interact with Anaplan programmatically. It is mostly designed with Data Integration Scenarios in mind, but it does support all APIs including ALM, SCIM, Audit, and Cloud Works. Please…
Hello team, I am logging into Anaplan through SSO. I would like to create a batch script to import a file into Anaplan. For the Spoke model, I would like to run an process via a batch script to import data from the Data Hub. Can anyone provide me script for both the condition.
Hello, I am receiving an 'Anaplan Upload Failed' Status Description when testing my integration with a Big Query dataset. The integration imports data from BQ to our Anaplan model. No other details given in the error log. I suspect that Cloudworks is not even picking up the file but am not sure what we did wrong on the set…
