Inline fields from a Table does not seem to work

[gridrabbit]

I'm creating a contact template and wanted to fill out contact information in a table like below (simplified version for this post). I use the "inline fields" "data annotation" with () to hide the "key" in the Preview mode, see below. But it dows not work. Does the fact that I put it in a table prevent dataview from seeing the inline meta data?

page example:

tags: contact

Name	(name:: John Doe)
Title	(title:: Senior Director)
Company	(company:: Some Company)
Email	email:: [email protected]

TABLE Name, Title, Email FROM #contact 

If I do the same annotation in a sentence like below, it works (the name is shown in the preview dataview table):

Sentence with (Name:: John Doe) in it.

But doing inline annotation for meta data, in a table like the above, it does not work i.e. the preview dataview table just have a - under the name.

Removing the parentheses e.g. as I did for Email in the above table, still does not make it work.

Do I need to annotate differently in a Table like above, or can you not add metadata in a table like so?

I just realized the issue and will answer the post myself, in case others are as dumb as me.

The dataview table creation is case sensitive. In my contact table, i have/had all my meta keys in lower case but in the dataview table I wanted the column names to have capital letters.

It's a little more nuanced than that - Dataview variables can either be referenced (1) exactly case sensitive, or (2) all lowercase, which dataview will map to the correct variable. I.e., "Hello" can be referenced as both Hello and hello, but not HELLO.

If you want to name your table columns something else, use AS:

TABLE name AS "Name", title AS "Title", email AS "Email" FROM #contact
