What’s a nice & simple method to find the type of a documentation page? As in the designations of Symbol, Guide, Tutorial, or Workflow?

@CATrevillian If you are using V12.1 then the method listed here could be adapted to inspect any documentation page, not just tutorials:

A: How can I list all tech note pages?

WReachThe old documentation center used to have index pages for things like tech notes, but that seems to be absent in version 12.1. But until they reappear... "Tech note" in 12.1 is not so much a first-class concept as it is a qualifier applied to tutorials. Tutorial types are identified by a certa...

In particular, the function tutorialType defined in that response can, despite the name, determine the type of any documentation page.
@WReach that is even more than I knew what I wanted to find! Bellissimo!
Do I understand correctly that the Import call there, with the specified (Object, I think?) types would only pull in/read that information, and not that of the whole Notebook? I would incorporate this into what will be a package to bookmark documentation pages/probably arbitrary things like user files and URLs, so limited overhead would be beneficial

is there a more elegant way to run a multi-column function against a dataset? For example if I want the Norm across three columns, right now I have:

ds[All, {"x", "y", "z"} /* Values /* Norm]
ds[All, Norm[{#x, #y, #z}] &]?

@chuy I knew there was a better way, thank you!

@CATrevillian The Import will only return the selected elements. However, I cannot speak to whether the internal implementation will do this by streaming the notebook or by reading the entire thing into memory. Some experimentation and/or spelunking would be required.
