Description
Overview of the Feature Request
The Google Data Commons requires a specific format and ordering for its data tables' columns, while Dataverse allows any format for its table. This tool take in a Dataverse Table and a descriptive json file and transform the data table and modify the required config file for the GDC.
What kind of user is the feature intended for?
At this point it will require the data depositor to create/modify the description document and run the tool. We may be able to automate the process somewhat.
What inspired the request?
The need for transforming data for use in our custom GDC installation
What existing behavior do you want changed?
Any brand new behavior do you want to add to Dataverse?
