data alert
Hi ibarrau
Thank you for the solution.
I created the report first and save, then pin it to dashboard. Then I can manage alert successfully.
The humidity level came out in weird value because apparently I mislook there is advanced setting to set only average value is shown.
Thank you again.
Best regards,

Hi
Thank you for your response.
I used card visualization. I got streaming data from Azure and saved it in my workspace. Then I created a dashboard there and add a tile in card visualization tha contained real time data that I got from Azure.
Then from that, I tried to manage alert but i cant find that option on the tile. I attached the screenshot of created tile on dashboard.
So thats the background of my problem , it helps a lot if you can identify what is the problem and solution.
Thank you.
Hi. Ok, the visual is ok. However the card doesn't look ok. Are you pinning that from a Report with of a Streaming datasets? The only alerts you can set are for the three visuals pinned from a report. You have to build an streaming dataset first. Then create a report with that and finally pin the visual to a dashboard.
I hope that make sense.
Hi, thank you for replying
I am not pinning it from reports.
In my workspace, I created a dashboard then I add a tile with card visual to dashboard containing streaming real time data. I attached a screenshot as well.
That's why you can't pin. Open Power Bi Desktop and connect to a Power Bi Dataset. Check your streaming dataset. You can create measures in that Desktop to help you with calculations or number formatting (like the percentage you said before).
Then create a card in the report, publish and pin it to dashboard 🙂

By the way, instead of dashboard I tried to create a report containing streaming datasets but it shows weird value on the card. It supposed to show humidity in percent.
That's good to know. If you want to format your numbers, you should connect the Power Bi Streaming dataset with Power Bi Desktop first to create a report. In there you can create Measures that can be formated for those aggregations you are doing in the page.
About the dataset icon, the icon shows what type of dataset is that. The sample one is an imported dataset, the other ones are streaming datasets.
I hope that helps,
Also, I noticed something that might be a hint for the solution but I am not sure how to utilize it. Please refer to image I attached below.
The streaming data that I wanted to use is datafromENV. The last data set sales and marketing sample is a sample that I took from power bi when I practising, when I used that data sample, manage alert is available and the data sets can be refreshed. But my data set datafromENV have no refresh icon beside it and when I looked I noticed the symbol/icon of both data sets at the left side of it is different. Wht is the meaning of the both icons?
