Issue description
When validating a dataset, you get the error:
Failed to validate dataset.
Troubleshooting and reproducing issues
In the case of this error, under "Additional information", you can see the "Field title conflicts with another field"
and "ERR.DS_API.FIELD.TITLE.CONFLICT"
messages.
Solution
The issue is due to field name conflicts. The name of the added field must not coincide with any existing field in the dataset.
Check that you set a unique name for this field in your dataset.
A field with this name was probably first added to the chart and then to its source dataset.
In this situation, rename the field added to the chart.
