Transformations
Server side transformations are introduced in Infinity 2.0. You can perform basic data manipulation in the server side.
To perform server side transformations, you need to add a query type of transformations. Once this added, this will perform server side transformation over all the previous infinity queries with backend parser.
Warning: Infinity Transformations/Server side transformations, are not available neither for non infinity datasources nor infinity queries with non-backend parsers.
Example
Supported transformations
Limit
Limit transformation limits the number of result items rows in each query.
Filter Expression
Filter the results based on column values in each query.
Computed Column
Appends a new column based on expression
Summarize / Group by
Group by results based on aggregation and dimension.
Note: All these transformations, are done post processing. ( once server responds with data, infinity backend client manipulates the data. ). If your API supports, such transformations on server side, use those instead of this.
