Adding a fixed header row to a table

    Hi,

    I have a table. I am importing from a JSON API. I use the extension “Automatic Periodic Table Import” to update the table once a day. However, the JSON-file is a list of events with date, description, location, etc. So there is no real header row in the table. Row no 1 is just another event from the JSON API.

    So, I want to add a fixed header row to the table. The cells in the header row just contains titles for the columns. Of course I could add a row manually, but it is replaced when I import the next time.

    Is there a way to have row 1 fixed, with fixed names, and only import to row 2 to 500 from the JSON API?

    Best regards,
    Hakan

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    No, sorry, that’s not directly possible. Your best chance here would be to write a custom intermediate/wrapper script, e.g. in PHP. You could then use that for the Auto Import, and it would do the actual fetching of the data from the API and constructing the table with header.

    Regards,
    Tobias
