Show SFDC Object API Names in Report Builder

Hello! I’m working on some reporting from SFDC sources this morning and hit a recurring issue that I’ve always just muscled my way through in the past: object names. Specifically, Report Builder always shows the Label for these vs the API Name. This is an issue because many (I assume) SFDC orgs have several copies of the common objects with identical Labels.

 

What would be really helpful would be a mouseover tooltip displaying the full API name for each. This would allow me to figure out which “Case” or “Quote” I want without painstakingly loading each to compare the fields until I find my target.

    THIS !!! I have the same issue with certain objects (and fields …).

    The most expensive part of building is the mistakes. That's true in construction. Not so much in CSOps. So ask questions, make mistakes and learn. All views expressed here are my own.
