Hi Team,
How to sort x-axis based on date column.
Have used day of year as sort column but am getting same as above. Please help on same.
Am using SQL direct query mode to get data.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous , if the data type is date, then from three dots, you should able to sort it date.
If the data type is text, then make a date column as the sort column of this column and then use this column
