描述

Within formulas in rows, I can follow references like $Person.Full_Name, if $Person refers to a reference column. Trying to do the same from within an API client is kind of cumbersome, even with the recently-added SQL API support (thanks btw!). It would be nice if I could just supply a few formulas when requesting records from a table, and the values of the formulas get computed and added as additional columns in the response.

研究方向
Examine the existing API endpoints in Grist's source code, likely in the 'api' directory. Investigate the formula evaluation logic to understand how references and formulas are computed. Consider how to extend the current SQL API or create a new endpoint to accept formulas and return computed columns alongside row data.
