how to access nested properties of an object while defining columns in grid
posted

I have a data set that looks like this

const data = [ { newYork: {id: 3, name: 'newYork', xyz: 123 }, ... ];

I want to access the name property of the nested json object, this is how i am currenlty doing it.

<IgrTextColumn
    name={obj}
    key={`${obj}.name`}
    field={`${obj}.name`}
    headerText={`${obj}`}
    width='*>170'
    horizontalAlignment='center'
    pinned={obj === 'Zone' ? 'left' : 'none'}
    columnOptionsIconBehavior={obj === 'Zone' ? 'AlwaysVisible' : 'Unset'}
    isColumnOptionsEnabled={obj === 'Zone' ? 'true' : 'false'}
/>
the data grid displays the property in the grid but the problem is when the name field has ' . '(dot) in it the grid doesn't display the name it probably thinks there is another nested property to access. Below is an example of such case

const data = [ { newYork: {id: 3, name: 'newYork.phase1', xyz: 123 }, ... ];
if there is a better way to do this, where I can access the nested properties of an object that would be great.
