# markdown

> Mustache template that renders measure values as Markdown in data table columns.

export const field_0 = "measure"

Renders measure values as Markdown in data table columns using Mustache.

The `markdown` parameter is not a [`format`](/modeling/measures/parameters/format) value. Use it when you want a [table visualization][table-vis] to render a column as Markdown (for example bold text, links, or images) using a [Mustache](/visualize-present/mustache-reference) template filled with each row's values.

* **`format`** controls standard number, currency, and percentage display for the measure.
* **`markdown`** renders a Mustache template as formatted text (bold, links, images) in **table** cells.

## Syntax

```yaml theme={null}
<measure_name>:
  markdown: "<mustache_template>"
```

## Properties

<ParamField path="measure_name" type="object">
  The name of the measure.

  <Expandable title="measure_name properties" defaultOpen="true">
    <ParamField path="markdown" type="string">
      A Mustache template string. The rendered output displays as Markdown in table visualization columns.
    </ParamField>
  </Expandable>
</ParamField>

## Behavior

* When you add a {field_0} with `markdown` to a query and use a table chart, Omni merges the template into the column's display settings so cells render as Markdown by default. In the table visualization's **Display** tab, you can customize the Markdown template and CSS, then use the **Promote** button to save those changes to the workbook model.
* Mustache can reference `value`, `raw`, and `value_url_encoded` for the current field, and **`{{view_name.field_name.value}}`** (and related properties) for other fields in the row.
* Referenced fields are included in the query automatically when needed.

For how `format` and `markdown` interact, see the [Formatting values guide](/modeling/models/format-values#formats-with-markdown).

<Note>
  Dashboard text tiles and standalone Markdown chart types are separate from field `markdown`, which applies to workbook data tables for modeled fields.

## Examples

### Label the aggregated value

```yaml title="ecomm__orders.view" theme={null}
measures:
  order_count:
    sql: '"order_id"'
    aggregate_type: count_distinct
    markdown: "**{{ecomm__orders.order_count}}** orders"
```

### Link with encoded query parameter

```yaml title="orders.view" theme={null}
measures:
  sale_price:
    sql: '"price"'
    aggregate_type: sum
    markdown: "[{{orders.sale_price.value}}](https://example.com/explain?q={{orders.price.value_url_encoded}})"
```
