Deneb: only hardcoded data works?

MsBushido — Thu, 20 Feb 2025 04:06:14 GMT

Hello all,

I'm trying to get some Deneb visualization going.

However, even when I dumb it down to the simplest example, Deneb refuses to show me anything.

For example, here I made the simplest Test data and I just want Deneb to show it. But no matter what I do, it just doesn't show it.

Meanwhile hardcoded data does show:

How should I proceed?

Hi @MsBushido,

It looks like you're using data as the referenced name, and the Vega view will not have a reference to that to display anything, which is as expected.

To link to the data supplied to the visual from the model, the name to use is dataset. Hopefully this will resolve your issue.

Good luck!

Daniel

Daniel, thank you very much for this!
I spent hours on this, haha, only to find out it was something so simple.

Awesome, thanks!
