beast-mode-creation

To create and validate a Domo beast mode calculated field, provide your dataset schema, target field name, and formula; the system checks column references, validates via API, and outputs ready-to-run curl deployment commands.

You need the dataset schema, the target field name, and the intended formula to generate a Domo calculated field. The system validates the formula against the schema and outputs ready-to-run curl commands.

Yes, you can validate a beast mode formula against your dataset schema before deploying it. The system ensures all referenced columns exist, validates via API, and returns the inferred dataType and aggregation flag.

To deploy a calculated field in Domo using curl commands, execute the dataset-level creation payload generated by the system, then save the returned legacyId to construct the subsequent card update payload for future modifications.

Dataset-level beast modes apply calculated fields across all cards using the dataset by default, while card-level scope restricts the formula to a single card; the system outputs curl payloads for either deployment scope.

You need to save the legacyId after creating a beast mode in Domo because it is required to construct the subsequent card update payload for future modifications and updates to the calculated field.
