Hi,
I have a json object as follows.
{
"Hour" :1,
"Good" :11,
"Reject" :1,
"Rework" :0,
"Target" :50
}I need to visualze these data in cards and need to update a dashboard in real time.
I need to show the hour in one card,good number in another,reject in another etc.I've tried with streaming api and pushed data.When i push the data seconed time as follows,
{
"Hour" :1,
"Good" :15,
"Reject" :1,
"Rework" :2,
"Target" :50
}Card values are aggregated and shows a sum. What i need is to show the good,reject,rework values for particular hour.
Also i need to use a line chart and show data for 10 hours.
Is there a way to achive this?
Hi @chathu,
How did you create the Streaming dataset?
I have tested it with creating a streaming dataset(API) by pushing data using the streaming sample code below, and the data shown on the Card visual is not aggregated in my test.

namespace PBIRealTimeStreaming
{
// Sample app demonstrating how to use the Power BI REST APIs for streaming data
// Pushes current datetime and a random integer to the REST API every second
// Full documentation: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/documentation/powerbi-service-real-time-streaming/
// To run this sample:
// 1. Go to app.powerbi.com
// 2. Go to streaming data management page by via new dashboard > Add tile > Custom Streaming Data > manage data
// 3. Click "Add streaming dataset"
// 4. Select API, then Next, and give your streaming dataset a name
// 5. Add a field with name "ts", type DateTime
// 6. Add a field with name "value", type Number
// 7. Click "Create"
// 8. Copy the "push URL" and paste it as the value of "realTimePushURL" below
class Program
{
// Paste your own push URL below
// e.g. https://api.powerbi.com/beta/2b958e42-b81e-441d-af13-801621ce8401/datasets/a5a15fd1-8cb6-4527-b2e6-f22f2a274d4d/rows?key=apsBX1ef%2F8a7ToL2GuTyfCQKIYASbbDBbZeGATSyRYerZKpnu%2FbE2g2yDM0%2Bs4cDW9mqu5zKoGcQ27vJuh0Huw%3D%3D
private static string realTimePushURL = "";
static void Main(string[] args)
{
while (true) {
try
{
// Declare values that we're about to send
String currentTime = DateTime.UtcNow.ToString();
Random r = new Random();
int currentValue = r.Next(0, 100);
// Send POST request to the push URL
// Uses the WebRequest sample code as documented here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/debx8sh9(v=vs.110).aspx
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(realTimePushURL);
request.Method = "POST";
string postData = String.Format("[{{ \"ts\": \"{0}\", \"value\":{1} }}]", currentTime, currentValue);
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Making POST request with data: {0}", postData));
// Prepare request for sending
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData);
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
// Get the request stream.
Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
// Write the data to the request stream.
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
// Close the Stream object.
dataStream.Close();
// Get the response.
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
// Display the status.
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Service response: {0}", ((HttpWebResponse)response).StatusCode));
// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
// Read the content.
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
// Display the content.
Console.WriteLine(responseFromServer);
// Clean up the streams.
reader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex);
}
// Wait 1 second before sending
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}
}
}
In addition, you should be able to show the history value for a period of time on the line chart. ![]()
