Charts not changing with Variable change

mrthomasshelby — Wed, 01 Mar 2017 13:33:13 GMT

I have created a field based on a boolean with a variable involved as below:

if($(vInput)>=X_percent,True(),False()) as INSCOPE

Now I have to use this field to create some visualizations. Example:

Sum({$<[Multiple_Single]={'Multiple'},[INSCOPE]={'-1'}>}[Benefits])

I have used the Variable extension in my dashboard to be able to change the variable value and the charts accordingly. However, the charts are not responding to any change in the variable value. I'm having to go to the script and change the vInput value and reload the data for the charts to change. Can someone please help me so that the charts respond to the changes in variable values to be made from the dashboard itself? Thanks in advance.

I think the extension work only with variables defined in the end front not in the script.

But with that being said, how Are you calling your variable in the extension?

I'm calling it with it's name, ie I'm filling in vInput in the Name field of the extension. Also, what do you mean by end front?

Thanks.
