data-set element
The dataset node in the component manifest represents a specific, configurable representation of a set of table records.
You can define multiple datasets in the manifest. The first dataset in the manifest is as the primary dataset. When you configure a multi dataset component, the primary dataset property always has name Items. All nonprimary dataset properties will have a _Items suffix after the dataset name.
Certain features in the authoring panel only apply to the primary dataset properties, such as data source selector, field selector, and view selector. To configure a nonprimary dataset property, the maker needs to first import the data source to the app, then set the property value to that secondary data source. Property-set should be used for accessing columns in a nonprimary dataset property.
