<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <listing xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd"> <columns name="customer_columns" class="Magento\Customer\Ui\Component\Listing\Columns"> <column name="custom_column" sortOrder="90" class="Vendor\Extension\Ui\Component\Listing\Column\CustomColumn"> <argument name="data" xsi:type="array"> <item name="config" xsi:type="array"> <item name="sortable" xsi:type="boolean">true</item> <item name="filter" xsi:type="string">text</item> <item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">text</item> <item name="align" xsi:type="string">left</item> <item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Team</item> </item> </argument> </column> </columns> </listing> |
