Distinct Values on the References Pages

I very much appreciate the ability to download from the References tab. I would still very much like the ability to display distinct values and use Filter From file since the tables are so large and currently difficult to navigate.

    Hi Alex,

    Great to hear that you are using the downloading in the Reference module.

    You have 2 issues in this one request, distinct values and filter from file. Can you please add a separate requrest for using Filter from file on References,

    We will look at adding distinct values to cokumns in the Reference module.

    Thanks for adding your ideas.
