Broadcast Filters
Include filter values or full filter details in broadcast subjects. Available
Filter Parameter | Basic Example | Filter Parameter Text | Example within Broadcast Subject text |
---|---|---|---|
Filter Value Only | Job Open | [filter:<filter title>] eg [filter:Job Status] | Weekly jobs report for Finance where Job Status In List Job Open, Selection Process eg Weekly jobs report for [filter:Group] where [filterDetail:Job Status] |
Full Filter Details | Job Status equals Job Open | [filterDetail:<filter title>] eg [filterDetail:Job Status] |
Text Parameters
Include automatic text or values on a chart canvas. Available
Parameter | Parameter Text | Description |
---|---|---|
Report Name | [reportname] | Adding this will place the name of your report in your chart. You can set the report name when you publish it. |
Report Description | [reportdescription] | This will show your report's description. You can provide this description when you publish the report. |
Cell Value | [tablevalue:column=<value>:row=<value>] | This parameter takes a column and row coordinate from a report table and displays its value in the text widget. For example, [tablevalue:column=1:row=1] will display whatever value is in the first column and row of a table. Note:
|
Filter Value | [filter:<filter_order>] | This widget parameter returns the filter you have applied in your report. You can include any filter by entering its order number. For example, [filter:2] displays the second filter. Note however, that if a specified filter yields no value, then (None)will be displayed by default. |
Raw Filter Value | [filter:<filter_order>:format=<value>] | This operator is used to display the filter value in its raw form or with the applied format. Use the following keywords in place of <value>:
|
Filter Value with empty text | [filter:<filter_order>:empty=<text>] | You can also specify the exact text to display, if the selected filter brings up no value, by using the Empty operator. Simply enter the text that you want to show in case the filter returns empty. E.g. [filter:1:empty=No result] - If the first filter is empty, then the text 'No result' will appear where this text widget filter parameter is placed. Note: The following characters should not be included in the text: “:”, “[” or “]”. |
Column Aggregation | [total:<column_number>] | Use this to display the total aggregation value set on a column field, where the column is specified with its order number in the report. For example: [total:3] will show the total aggregated value of the third column. This value will depend on the aggregation type set on the total of the column field in the report, if any has been defined; otherwise it will display the total Sum value for metric fields, or the total Count for dimension fields. |
Column Aggregation Type | [total:<column_number>:<aggregation_type>] | This is similar to the above parameter, however it displays the total column value depending on the aggregation type that you specify in here. This will override the existing aggregation type defined in the report. Use the following keywords to specify the aggregation type (ensure the same format is used for these keywords, i.e. all capital letters): SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN, COUNT, and COUNTDISTINCT. For example, [total:2:AVG] will display the total average of the second column. Note: For dimension fields, only COUNT and COUNTDISTINCT can be applied. |
