Datasource Naming Alignment

To provide a seamless integration with the Taboola / Yahoo Native Network, we have aligned the name and description conventions frontend on the Alli Datasource page to match those used by Taboola / Yahoo Native Network directly. Please note, some dimension names visible on the Alli datasource UI - Define your data section will differ when querying the datasource through tools like the Data Explorer / Reports, Bigquery, Redshift, etc.

Taboola UI Name / Alli Datasource UI Name	API / Column name returned to `taboola_insights_creative`
`creative id`	`item`
`creative name`	`ad_name`
`headline`	`item_name`
`line id`	`campaign`
`line name`	`campaign_name`

When querying like

SQL

select *
from {alli_client_slug}.taboola_insights_creative

The result will show as

For the Taboola reporting within Data Library, we will keep the naming consistent with Tabool / Yahoo Native Network UI. The ADL2.0 filed mapping docs can be found here Data Library 2.0 Field Mapping
