So frustrating…i made some changes to a table, changed it back and now my interactivity doesn’t work anymore. Can someone help me with a checklist to make sure I’ve got all the right settings. My situation:
Table1: simple list of “campaigns” and Table2 long list of displays with “campaign” as a column
Views: Dashboard:
View1 is table view of campaigns from Table 1
View2 is map view of list of displays (slicer of Table2)
When I tap on the Campaign in the dashboard, I want the map to filter out all of the displays not in that campaign.
I’ve confirmed the Reference column is in the Campaign table. Table2’s Campaign column is set to Ref. Now when I select an item in the Table1, all icons disappear on the map. Does this have something to do with a slicer I’m using to filter the users access to their own state’s info? Why is this so hard for me to understand?
Also, when I change the Campaign column to Ref type in Table2 (List of Scans/Displays) all of my format rules are lost too.
I know I screwed something up when I was testing something earlier and now I can’t get it back to the working version I had this morning. Ugh!
Yeah, interactive dashboards really aren’t well explained, and are presented as so much magic.
Basically (as I understand it), if you have interactive dashboard on, and view A displays a deck, gallery, or table view, and view B displays a detail or other single-row view of the same data set displayed by view A, view B will display whichever row is selected from view A. Without interactive mode, clicking on a row in view A will switch to the single-row view of that row. With interactive dashboard on, the view doesn’t switch; instead, the existing view B is used.
