Can I change the order of columns in a list report?

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Prerequisites: Familiarity with building a list report (guide here), and navigating the Explore or Storyboard interface

The order of columns in your list report is fixed, from left to right, as:

1. Dimension/s
2. Pivoted Dimension/s
3. Metric/s
4. Additional Column/s

You can arrange the individual components within these categories by dragging and dropping, but the overall order is fixed. 

In some cases, you may be able to use a ‘dim’ additional column instead of a dimension if you need the data to sit at the right of the list report. This will depend on the specific query.
