Displaying Raw Data in the Grid Widget of Bold BI

When working with the Grid widget in Bold BI, you may want to display the data without any grouping applied to the columns. This can be useful for analyzing the raw data as it is stored in the data source. Here’s how you can configure the Grid widget to show ungrouped raw data.

Steps to Show Raw Data in the Grid Widget

Step - 1: Add Columns to Measures and Dimensions:

Begin by dragging and dropping the desired columns into the Measures and Dimensions fields within the Grid widget.

Step - 2: Understand the Default Behavior:

By default, the values of the selected columns are grouped. This is the initial state before you select the option to display raw data.
