Using "Column" in Settings to Get Column Name

Hi,
How do I get the column name from the settings when using the “Column” setting in a board view? At first glance, the column input in the settings is exactly what I wanted: to choose a column in a board. But when you look at what comes out, all you get is a boolean. How do I get identifying information about the column from the settings so that I can match it up with the board data?

Regards,
Jeremy

Hello there @jBoetticher!

The id of the column is in the response you get, before the value of the boolean.

In your case, the column ids would be “numbers” and “people”.

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
Matias

Unfortunately the column selection feature stopped working in entirety. It no longer shows my columns, and trying to create a column throws an error in the console.
