New-UDDataGrid won't render with custom datasets

PowerShell Universal

So I’m playing around with the new cmdlet for data grids (New-UDDataGrid) and I can’t seem to get the content to render on my dashboard when trying to populate data dynamically.

I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if I’m doing something wrong, but I get the same behavior if I just copy the example code from the custom columns example in the documentation here.

Here’s what the example looks like

New-UDDataGrid -LoadRows {  
    $Rows = 1..100 | % {
        @{ Name = 'Adam'; Number = Get-Random}
    }
    @{
        rows = $Rows
        rowCount = $Rows.Length
    }
    
} -Columns @(
    @{ field = "name"; render = { New-UDTypography -Text $EventData.number }}
    @{ field = "number"}
) -AutoHeight

And the output
Example1

Here’s my code

New-UDDataGrid -LoadRows {

        $Data = @($JobOutput | Where-Object {$_.'Assigned_To' -eq "$($User -replace '\.',' ')"}) | ForEach-Object {
            @{Ticket_Number = $_.Ticket_Number; Summary = "$($_.Summary)"}
        }

        @{
            rows = $Data
            rowCount = $Data.Length
        }

        } -Columns @(
            @{field = "Ticket_Number"}
            @{field = "Summary"}
        ) -AutoHeight
}

Just for some added context, the $JobOutput variable has 2 objects inside of it. If you were to output the hashtable from -LoadRows you get this output:

Name                           Value
----                           -----
rows                           {System.Collections.Hashtable, System.Collections.Hashtable}
rowCount                       2

But looking at the example code, I should be getting a comma-seperated list of the ‘Name’ column as shown below:

Name                           Value
----                           -----
rows                           {Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam…}
rowCount                       100

If I rename my Ticket_Number column to Name instead, I get the same output now:

Name                           Value
----                           -----
rows                           {12345, 67890}
rowCount                       2

Name                           Value
----                           -----
Name                           12345
Summary                        Help With Desk Phone
Name                           67890
Summary                        New Computer Question

New-UDDataGrid -LoadRows {

        $Data = @($JobOutput | Where-Object {$_.'Assigned_To' -eq "$($User -replace '\.',' ')"}) | ForEach-Object {
            @{Name = $_.Ticket_Number; Summary = "$($_.Summary)"}
        }

        @{
            rows = $Data
            rowCount = $Data.Length
        }

        } -Columns @(
            @{field = "Name"}
            @{field = "Summary"}
        ) -AutoHeight
}

I’m not sure if it’s even related, but that was the only guess I had to as why it wouldn’t work. I’m in the 7.2.5 environment.

If I use the basic example with 3 rows with the Name and Number columns, that’s the only one that I can get to work, but anything involving custom data outputs I can’t get to work for some reason.
