Chart from Metric sheet

Hi all!

One of the projects I am working on is using a metric sheet to roll up information. When I create a report from this, to then display on a dashboard, the report shows the column headers. Being a metric sheet, the column headers are generic (Column3, Column4, etc.) as the data within the column varies based on which section the row is in.

Is there a way to not show the column header in the report? Or is there a better way to handle it?

Here is an example from the metric sheet:

Within the same metric sheet is other data, for example:

Here is the report:

And here is how it shows on the dashboard:

Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions!

    Hi @Jess D

    You cannot hide column names - you can change them in the dashboard report widget, would that work? it's not perfect but….

    Hi Jason,

    Thanks for getting back to me! It looks like the screen shot is changing the title of the widget, not the column names. I tried to rename the columns within the report with no luck. I will see what other options I have.

    Thanks again!

    Sorry Jess, I thought you wanted the change on the Dashboard. You cannot change the column name in a report as the data is pulled in from the sheet - you would need to change column name on the sheet.

    Cheers.
