How to alias fields in sense smart search

Anonymous — Wed, 21 Jun 2017 06:50:13 GMT

I have built a mashup in Qlik Sense where we can create visualizations on the fly by typing in a textbox.

Here is the Wiki page of that mashup.

According to the content of the Wiki page, we can alias a field name within our code. The link for this info is here.

I have modified my code in the following way as mentioned by the Wiki:

app.model.waitForOpen.promise.then(function(){

//alias 'brand' as 'org' --- not working

senseSearch.inputs["myInput"].nlpModel.fieldNounMap.org = "brand";

//make the 'total' function operate as 'count' -- working

senseSearch.inputs["myInput"].nlpModel.functionMap.total = "count";

senseSearch.connectWithCapabilityAPI(app);

});

But here, the alias functionality is not working but when I am trying to override the functionality of the 'total' function it works.

Where am I going wrong in the first place? Please suggest
