Currently, in the entity list of a dataflow, there is a detailed view that shows FIELD NAME and DATA TYPE. To the right of these two columns are lots of empty space. Proposed additional columns (all from from Table.Profile():
Min, Max, Average, StandardDeviation, Count NullCount, DistinctCount
Min & Max work with text as well as numbers, but Average and StandardDeviation do not, which is great.
This metadata would be super useful for data quality from a creator standpoint, but are also useful for end users in knowing what data is available without having to load it first.
