I am having trouble retrieving the actual values from a matrix data mapping. Below is the current mapping I have specified:
"dataViewMappings": [
{
"matrix": {
"rows": {
"select": [
{
"for": {
"in": "row"
}
}
]
},
"columns": {
"for": {
"in": "column"
}
},
"values": {
"for": {
"in": "values"
}
}
}
}
]
When I attempt to access my valueSources via
dataViews[0].matrix.valueSources[0]
All my object contains is the following:
However, I do notice that there is a root object on both the rows and columns that contains the values I want (see below)
So, my question is: how do I access the values of the matrix, my actual measures?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I actually found the answer to my question! I wanted to post here so other developers who experience this can find help to. You access the root and values via:
matrix.rows.root.children[0].values[0].value
Cheers!
