Hi Everyone, hope you're staying safe.
I have a question on how to format a realtime dataset with a date field. I'm using a realtime dataset and I have a Timestamp column which contains timestamps for the different data points. I want to be able to visualise this on a bar chart or a line graph with the date as the x-axis. Instead of the actual time being shown on the x-axis, i want to summarise the datapoints by day.
i.e. on the x-axis, i want to see 17 Sept, 18 Sept, etc instead of 1.00pm, 2.00pm, 3.00pm, etc. Then Y axis i want to see the values pertaining to each day. I can only see the date if i hover of the data points.
Because I can't create calculated columns and i can't manipulate the column like i usually would with normal datasets, i'm not sure on how to format.
Is anyone able to help? any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I think that depends on the frequency of your new row submission and the filters on your visuals. Here is an example of a submission every 15 minutes and a display range of five days.
