[Fiori Elements] Custom Column in a Table is not visible

 , , , , , , ,

I had a generated Fiori Elements App (done by using @sap/generator-fiori), containing a List, where I needed to add a custom column containing a Button. I found this well explained in the official documentation:

https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/topic/d525522c1bf54672ae4e02d66b38e60c

I followed the instructions exactly, but it didn’t work. When comparing my manifest.json again with the example, I noticed one minor difference. In my generated App, there was an extra items/ in front of the @com.sap.vocabularies.UI.v1.LineItem.

My generated App
The manifest.json sample

After removing items/ the custom column was suddenly visible. When I noticed the difference, I thought that would never be the reason. Luckily, I tested it after all. That really is a big problem with Fiori Elements. These are problems that can no longer be solved by debugging or similar.

Here some more helpful links, when challenging with a custom column:

[Home Assistant] Dashboard – vertical-stack title

 , , , , ,

Just learned that you can directly provide a title for a vertical-stack. Until now, I always added a mushroom-title-card at the beginning of every new stack like that:

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: custom:mushroom-title-card
    title: Lichter

But as you can directly provide a title for the vertical stack, you can get rid of this now unnecessary title card. The title can only be set via code editor.
The only difference is the smaller gap between title and content, which in my opinion looks even better this way.

type: vertical-stack
title: Lichter

TEXTVOR eignet sich zum Splitten einer Spalte, wenn z.B. nur der Teil vor einem Separator gebraucht wird bzw. bei mehreren gleichen Separatoren, lediglich das erste Ergebnis benötigt wird.

=TEXTVOR("1000|2000|TEST|APFEL";"|")

Ergebnis: 1000

[SuccessFactors] OData V2 – filter in (VSC Rest-API Client)

 , , , , ,

When filtering an OData V2 endpoint, you can simply list your values separated by a comma after the keyword in (option 2). Much shorter than having to repeat your filter statement all the time, like in option 1.

@user1=10010
@user2=10020

### Option 1: Filter userId using OR condition
GET {{$dotenv api_url}}/odata/v2/User?$filter=userId eq '{{user1}}' or userId eq '{{user2}}'
Authorization: Basic {{$dotenv api_auth}}
Accept: application/json

### Option 2: Filter userId using IN condition
GET {{$dotenv api_url}}/odata/v2/User?$filter=userId in '{{user1}}', '{{user2}}'
Authorization: Basic {{$dotenv api_auth}}
Accept: application/json
