are there plans to improve UI and add to the list view of tables in a dataset some short info about tables, like domain, owner, title from descrtiption? there is a lot of free space there and it would be really useful to be able to see those things in a a list view without having to open every single table

hey Nadia! yeah that's a great point and is something we've been thinking about in general - how to improve search results like this. You can see there are two different types of search result cards for entities, ones like this you see and the ones you see from the main search section which will actually have those pieces of metadata you're talking about. I believe the reason we have these redacted search cards is for situations where we want to save space - but like you've pointed out it could be possible to still have this information but make use of area on the right as well!
thanks for the feedback and keep an eye out for search result improvements as we continue to prioritize that

hey Chris. thank you supporting this idea! But it's not search result, it's simply an opened schema is a data source, like this: Platforms -> Hive -> <schema_name>

Right sorry I wasn’t clear, inside that component those tables are technically search results (since we use search to get those entities and we render a specific type of search result there). Ultimately it doesn’t matter and your point is heard and makes sense!

Ah I see, thank you for explaing! Also for maybe useful suggestions: an option for displaying schemas in a dataset in an alpabetical or some other order; and a filter bar - like the one inside a schema to filter by table name

Awesome feedback. We will definitely be acting on the initial feedback around enriching the information very shortly here. We’ve heard a few times now. Thanks!
