Hi @MalvikaBhasin 

 

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. It was very helpful. Allow me to add something relevant here.

 

To filter by date, you need to select silcer visaul instead of create by format.

Hi,

 

I used data from the link and this is what I get. I believe not all data is fit for slicer?

Hi,

 

Due you want to create a date slicer for filtering data?

Yes, a data slicer for filtering data.

 

@Saiteja - Can you help me with any abstract data that can give a good output?
