ConcatConst / String Layer
Concatenate (join) a string column with a constant text value. Similar to Python's string concatenation (str + str) or pandas string operations. Useful for:
- Adding prefixes or suffixes to identifiers
- Standardizing text formats (e.g., adding units)
- Creating composite strings (e.g., full URLs, file paths)
- Formatting display values

Table
Select
columnThe source column containing strings to concatenate. The column must contain string values.
Value
stringThe constant string (Value
) to concatenate. Examples:
- File extension (e.g., .txt)
- URL prefix (e.g., https://)
- Unit suffix (e.g., kg)
- Delimiter (e.g., -)
Reverse
boolIf true
, adds Value
before the string from Select
(prefix mode). If false
, adds Value
after the string (suffix mode). Example: with `Value='_test':
false
: data -> data_testtrue
: data -> _test_data
AsColumn
nameName for the new column. If not provided, the system generates a unique name. If AsColumn
matches an existing column, the existing column is replaced. The name should follow valid column naming conventions.
