Description

According to your document:
https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Creating_a_table/Data_types#Multi-value-integer-(MVA)
We will be able to obtain a list for MVA type value.

However, by using UtilsApi to query the index, it won't act as the same:

>>> utilsApi.sql('CREATE TABLE products(title text, product_codes multi)')
[{'total': 0, 'error': '', 'warning': ''}]
>>> utilsApi.sql('select * from products')[0]['columns']
[{'id': {...}}, {'product_codes': {...}}, {'title': {...}}]
>>> utilsApi.sql('select * from products')[0]['columns'][1]
{'product_codes': {'type': 'string'}}
