how to do trend based on live data
If you can connect to the datasource from it is simple as creating a line chart and setting up a OnPrem gateway to update data on a regular basis.
Whats the data source? Can you connect from Power BI Desktop? Do you have access to a Pro Licence?
Through Oracle.
I think I am unable to explain clearly. As the live data yesterday is not same as today's live data, I am unable to make a trend line.

Thank you for showing me this.
The challenge is to get data in that format.
As I mentioned I have live data on my Dashboard. The data that was yesterday is already gone and not recorded anywhere. I am unsure on how to record that in powerbi somehow.
E.g. Today's data says $10. Yesterday it was $15. I cant see the value $15 anymore as the data refreshes overnight.
Is there a way where I can record $15 from yesterday somewhhere in the data table so that I can then start making reports / charts.
Cheers

Hi asodhani
I'm experiencing the same problem. I want to show a trend of the live data, but the live data keeps on changing daily.
Have you found a way of doing it? I need help to do this.
My situation: I have live data of open tickets for my team. Everyday, the amount of open tickets keeps changing but my manager wants to see a trend of how many open tickets there are each day. But the data is live, and there is no time stamp.
