Can two attributes/measures/facts share a title or are they all unique?

Hello @Evan Shen, titles can be shared — although it's usually not the best practice and can lead to confusion —, what's unique are URIs (

/gdc/md/<pid>/obj/123

) across workspaces, and identifiers (

attr.employee.employeeid

,

date.aac81lMifn6q

,

av8YhE4kagTX

) within a workspace.

Is there a call I can make where I can provide any of those identifiers you listed (as well as the long hex ids like

2c276742ccd248a695cc535c3a410022

) and get one consistent type back? Different data sources return different id formats, or ids for an attribute’s displayform instead of the attribute itself, and managing them all has been really convoluted

On

<https://your.domain.com/gdc/md/><pid>/identifiers

is a form that you can use to convert identifiers to URIs, and URIs to identifiers.

ok, thanks!

Yup, there's an API "behind" the gray page. Just fire a POST towards the URL and get the results. It should work exactly the same as the form on the gray page.
