I am trying to create custom Table visual. While adding the conditional formating option I am getting error. How do I rectify it. Is there sample code available for custom Table visual. I checked the documentation but not getting much info.
TS2322: Type '{ slices: undefined[]; }' is not assignable to type 'FormattingGroup | FormattingGroupPlaceholder'.
Type '{ slices: undefined[]; }' is missing the following properties from type 'FormattingGroup': uid, displayName

const tableData = this.dataView.table.rows;
const columns = this.dataView.table.columns;
tableData.forEach((row, rowIndex) => {
