Renaming your column headers makes it easier to create data storiesRenaming your column headers makes it easier to create data stories

When you add columns to the data table, Pure has a generic approach to adding the column header name (like "title", "name", "year"). If you add many columns to your data table, it can get quite confusing on the data story, since it is using the same headings for dimensions and measures. Therefore, we recommend that you change the column header on your data story to make is much easier to build your narrative in the data story.

 

See attached screenshot on how big a difference it makes in your data story, if you take the time to rename column headers
