woodwork.table_accessor.WoodworkTableAccessor.set_index

WoodworkTableAccessor.set_index(new_index)[source]

Sets the index column of the DataFrame. Adds the ‘index’ semantic tag to the column and clears the tag from any previously set index column.

Setting a column as the index column will also cause any previously set standard tags for the column to be removed.

Clears the DataFrame’s index by passing in None.

Parameters

new_index (str) – The name of the column to set as the index
