Lightning:datatable

Hello Helper

I hope  I am asking my  questin  in the rith place. It  is about lightning 

I am using lightning:datatable  component  to display  data  retrieved  from a custom object.  I was able to  set  the columns  and the data  but I can not  see properly  field of type checkbox

    <lightning:datatable data="{!v.mydata}" 
        columns="{!v.mycolumns}" 
        hideCheckboxColumn="false"/>

        component.set('v.mycolumns', [
        {label: 'Team Member', fieldName: 'Name__c', type: 'text'},
        {label: 'Reason', fieldName: 'Assignment_Reason__c', type: 'text'},
        {label: 'Channel', fieldName: 'Channel__c', type: 'text'}, 
        {label: 'Active', fieldName: 'Active__c', type: 'checkbox'}     
                                     ]);     

I suspect the problem is  with the type  of the column

any  idea/suggestions?

Thanks in advance
csaba

Refer  Formatting with Data Types


The data table determines the format based on the type you specify. Each data type is associated to a base Lightning component. For example, specifying the text type renders the associated data using a lightning:formattedTextcomponent. Some of these types allow you to pass in the attributes via the typeAttributes property to customize your output. For supported attribute values, refer to the component's reference documentation. Valid data types and their supported attributes include:
{tushar-sharma}{tushar-sharma}
You can find ready to use lightning data table component example here: This component do support multiple field types.
