The Rank tool allows you to assign ranks to values in a column using different ranking methods. This is particularly useful for creating leaderboards, percentiles, or ordering data.

Rank method

Choose how tied values should be ranked:
  • Average: Tied values receive the average of the ranks they would have occupied. For example, if two values tie for 2nd and 3rd place, both get rank 2.5.
  • Ordinal: Each value gets a unique rank based on its position in the original order, even if values are identical.
  • Competition/Minimum: Tied values all receive the best (lowest) rank they would have gotten. For example, if two values tie for 2nd and 3rd place, both get rank 2.
  • Dense: Similar to minimum ranking, but ranks are consecutive with no gaps. If two values tie for 2nd place, the next value gets rank 3 (not rank 4).
Here’s an example of the different ranking methods:

Group by (optional)

Optionally group the ranking within categories defined by another column
