Editor types
Editor types are the UI elements for columns when you add or edit a data row.
Date Time
The Date Time type lets you enter a value in the DateTime format using a standard Grafana component.
Optionally, you can specify a range of permitted date-times using the Set Min Date and Set Max Date parameters.
Switch
Note
The Switch editor type is available starting from version 1.9.0.
The Switch editor type makes working with the Business Table panel more intuitive by transforming boolean data into a switch that you can turn on and off.
Number
The Number type lets you enter a numerical value. Optionally, you can specify the Min and Max for allowed values.
Select
The Select type provides a drop-down list populated from the Value Field parameter. Optionally, you can specify a Label Field. Both parameters, Value field and Label Field, come from the dataframe:column of your data source.
Note
The Allow custom value feature is available starting from version 1.9.0.
When enabled, you can enter a custom value in the prepopulated drop-down list when adding or editing a row.
To enable this feature, set Allow custom value to ON.
String
The String type lets you enter any value.
Text Area
Note
The Text Area editor type is available starting from version 1.9.0.
Use the Text Area editor type to add and edit multi-row text values.
