Review — Table Pivot verbatim column naming + sanitize option
Small, clean docs PR (7 lines) documenting the pivot column-naming change from PlaidCloud/plaid#6493. I cross-checked every claim against the product PRs and it's accurate:
- Verbatim default — matches the backend (
query.pivot(..., sanitize_column_names=False); REST modelField(False, …, "default keeps the raw category value")). - Option label — the client checkbox (PlaidClient#1785) is "Sanitize new column names (spaces and punctuation become underscores)"; the doc's bolded Sanitize new column names matches its leading text, and the parenthetical behaviour the doc describes matches the label's own.
Freight Revenue→Freight_Revenue— identical to the example in PlaidClient#1785.- Alteryx CrossTab auto-enable — confirmed in the backend test (
the Alteryx-converter path) and the client PR. - MDX is safe — examples are in backticks, so no
{…}JSX-expression gotcha; the/reference/workflow-steps/tables/table-pivot/link resolves to the existing page.
No new step is added (section appended to an existing page), so no category-index or LinkCard update is owed. The July release note is correctly placed as a Fixed entry and the "keep their spaces again" framing matches the regression being fixed.
No blocking findings. One cosmetic nit only: the insertion leaves two consecutive blank lines before ## Table Data Selection (the added + blank line plus the pre-existing one) — Markdown collapses it, drop one if you're touching the file again. Not worth a re-push on its own.
LGTM.
…ption A Table Pivot step names its new columns after the source category values verbatim by default; a new opt-in "Sanitize new column names" option replaces spaces/punctuation with underscores (Alteryx CrossTab imports enable it automatically). Adds a "New Column Naming" section to the Table Pivot reference page and a Fixed entry on the July 2026 What's New page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Documents the Table Pivot column-naming change from PlaidCloud/plaid#6493.
table-pivot.mdx): a new New Column Naming section — a pivot names its new columns after the source category values exactly as they appear by default; the new Sanitize new column names option replaces spaces and punctuation with underscores (e.g.Freight Revenue→Freight_Revenue), and Alteryx CrossTab imports enable it automatically.Related product PRs (deploy together): PlaidCloud/plaid#6493, PlaidCloud/workflow-runner#1089, PlaidCloud/PlaidClient#1785.
