Hey @celest quarry

I don't believe this is possible with nested fields iirc.

I think you have a few options of what you can do here:

1. Create a custom Cell component on your tab to surface this in the list view, then use the tabs field name in default columns
2. Use a hidden top-level field and a beforeChange hook to populate it, then add this field t oyour defaultColumns

well a nasted filed inside a tab works

but a nasted group inside a tab doesn't

so yeah i just put field i need in top of the tab

[stark wave]

Right, a group in general in the list view surfaces as a json-like object

[celest quarry]

i didnt want to opt for the second option you proposed until it nessecary

thanks for your help, will mark this as solved

[stark wave]

Fair enough, glad you found a path forward here though

It's my pleasure

[celest quarry]

and it will be very cool if we can make a group field as a column
