Dynamic Bookmark in Qliksense

Hi all,

Recently I have implemented dynamic bookmark on date field in Qliksense.

On opening the app the date field should select today's date, for that I had used variable which stores today's date based on the reload of app.

I also want the single date should be displayed in the selection , for that I have used always one select value option

 But the real problem arose when I used getfieldselection(date) function..this function was supposed to display me today's date, but it is showing the expression I used for dynamic bookmark creation based on today's date. 

Then after selecting a date from filter then getfieldselection function is displaying proper selected date.

I want to know whether there is any workaround possible to show today's date using getfieldselection function instead of dynamic bookmark expression after opening the app.

 

Regards,

Aatish

Hi PadmaPriya,

Yes, I have referred the same video before implementing it and I was able to implement the solution in my app. Based on the default bookmark I want to show always one selected value in date field after opening the app. This functionality working fine but when I had seen the same through getfieldselection function then I was seeing the expression used for setting up the bookmark instead of actual date.

I want to see actual date when I used getfieldselection () function because based on the date I need to perform next step in my app. But here as soon as I opened the app, the bookmark is getting applied to the app and that's the expected behaviour , but instead of date in getfieldselection (date) output, there it ia displaying default expression used for bookmark creation. And I want to see the date over there instead of expression that too without selecting the date again from date filter.
