Gauge Widget - Real Time Value
Hi,
I want to display a real time value in a gauge widget for an operational dashboard. But when I select the value to be displayed in the widget, I only have access to summurized values. There is no "Don't Summarize" option when I click on the little arrow at the right of the value.
My question is :
Is this the normal gauge widget behavior or is there something wrong with the way I use it ?
Thank !
To bypass the 8 updates limitation, why not use the DirectQuery mode? No schedule refresh is needed then.

That is the normal behavior.
When attempting to "Don't Summarize", what would you like to get with a Gauge Widget? I don't quite get the idea "real time value" in your case, if you mean something like" the latest", it is still a "Summarize".
Hi Eric,
Your right, I mean the latest value..
I'm working on an industrial IoT project using Azure microservices, including Power Bi.
I want to use the gauge visual to show the temperature of an industrial equipment in real time. I want the latest real measure, not any kind of agregated data.
I could have used a line chart and point the last dot to read the latest data but...
I plan to use the new Power Bi Augmented Reality to allow the equipment operator to scan a QR code to find out the real time temperature of the machine. A line chart is not a good option in this context.
Do you have any idea of what I could do with Power Bi to achieve this goal. Maybe some resource or example project I could take inspiration of ?
Thanks

So you're talking about something on Power BI mobile, while I don't really know much.
Regarding the Gauge Widget and "latest", you can reference a measure as below.
Measure = AVERAGEX ( FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[datetime] = MAX ( 'Table'[datetime] ) ), 'Table'[temperature ] )
