📖 Task Introduction

As you start to build out your analysis path, it maybe helpful to leave "bread crumbs" of the different boards you are using so your colleagues can better understand your logic. This can be done by adding Text boards, which allow for open-ended notes and descriptions using Markdown syntax ↗.

🔨 Task Instructions

  1. Click on the Visualize category in the action ribbon at the bottom of the Contour path.
  2. Select the Text board, then use it to write a short description about your Expression board, such as:
This expression concatenates the `origin` and `dest` columns  into a `route` column.
  1. Click ✔️ Done Editing.
