Large number is incorrectly formatted in dashboard studio

Hi!

I want to display a large number in a table in Splunk dashboard studio, but the format of the number is altered. Example:

myfield=2201103670207336994001422000

In the table it is formatted to a standard format: 2.201103670207337e+27

When i try to add precision 0 (0) on the field I get this: 2201103670207337000000000000

And when I open the table in search I get the actual value: 2201103670207336994001422000

Have tried to add myfield=tostring(myfield), and other formatting options, but nothing works in the dashboard studio table view. Preferrably this field should be treated as a string, but splunk seems to automatically set the field as a number.

Has anyone experienced this before and found a solution?
