Modifiers

Modifiers are services that process and transform data at the column level.


Data Cleaning

A transformation function that allows users to clean and normalize textual data by applying basictext operations such as trimming whitespace, changing case (lowercase, uppercase, titlecase).


Date Formatter

A transformation function that converts date-like values in the selected column(s) into a standardized or custom date format, using date-fns library for date parsing and formatting.


Pseudoanonymization

Pseudoanonymize or de-anonymize data in the selected column using encryption service. Choose between encrypting original values or decrypting vault keys.


Regular Expression Modifier

A transformation function that allows users to apply regular expression operations on text data, including pattern matching, replacement, and extraction of matched values.

Common Examples:

  • Extract numbers with up to 2 decimals: Pattern: \\d\\.\\d{1,2} (without anchors)
  • Truncate to 2 decimals: Operation: Replace, Pattern: ^(\\d\\.\\d{2})\\d*$, Replacement: $1
  • Extract email addresses: Pattern: \\w@\\w\\.\\w
  • Remove special characters: Operation: Replace, Pattern: [^a-zA-Z0-9\\s], Replacement: (empty)

Note: Use anchors (^ and $) only when you want to match the ENTIRE cell value. Without anchors, the pattern will match anywhere within the text.


Text to columns / Columns to text

A transformation function that allows joining multiple columns into one or splitting a single column into multiple columns using a separator defined by the user or by extracting the first or last portion of the cell value.


Text to rows

A transformation function that allows splitting the values of a single column into multiple rows using a custom separator defined by the user. For each split value, a new row is created and the values of the other columns are duplicated.
