DAP-4970 - Introduce data type selection and enhance data source filters based on the data type of the field

Existing System: Currently, every field in the data source is of data type "String"

Purpose: To provide more flexibility for filters and to ensure auto-populations are flawless

  • Option to select a data type for a column - this will be available only before saving the data source.
  • No option to change the data type once the data source, with the newly added column, is saved.
  • Supported data types - String, Date, Integer, Decimal, and Boolean. 
  • Once a particular data type is selected, values entered will be validated against that data type.  For example: Data Type = Date, only Date values can be entered for that column. 
  • Based on this data type, now the user would be able to auto-populate values to date fields, toggles, and numeric controls. 
  • Also, the user can filter data sources effectively as we can see more options based on the data type. 

Impacts on existing forms: No impact 

Available in Mobile: Yes, supported in iOS and Android
