Progress Bar while query is happening
Hello community
Is there any possibilty to create a Progress Bar that takes into account the time it takes to query the data?
Background:
I have a very big data base where the end user is able to create a data table however they need.
Depending on the filtering options it could take from a few seconds untill some 30 seconds.
having a progress bar to show the end user that the data is still loading would be very nice, in the case this is not possible, would still be possible to know somehow if the query is running so I could at least add a warning message "Please wait, query is running"
This is required because the current loading icon is not very visibile for some users.
Thanks in advance.
Not possible in both cases as data from reports will always take the last version of the dataset that has been refreshed.
What you can do is to add a little note in the report that specifies the times in which the report is being refreshed and the average time it takes to complete, that will give transparency to users.
Otherwise, see if you can optimize the performance of your queries. I'm not sure how much time you can reduce though if you are dealing with a massive dataset.
