Organization Name (Required - If you are an Oracle Partner, please provide the organization you are logging the idea on behalf of):

Oracle Design Research - Telemetry

Description (Required):

Text box text that allows data visualization authors to insert dynamic data points into the text as a function, so that the data point changes dynamically based on filters applied by a data visualization consumer.

For example, an author may write a narrative accompanying a visualization, such as "On average, Application X has Y active monthly users. Customer Z is the top customer for this application, with A monthly active users." X, Y, Z and A are dynamic data points that can change based on filters applied by a data visualization consumer to the chart.

Use Case and Business Need (Required):

In interviews with data visualization consumers, a frequent request is to have narrative accompanying a visualization so that users can understand the key data points and trends quickly. In order to display effective narrative, it would be very helpful if data visualization authors could write a custom narrative text for a visualization, with the ability to display dynamic data points within the narrative text. Although OAC currently supports automatically generated narrative text based on a dataset, we found that the automatically generated text tends to display too many data points that are not directly relevant to a visualization. A better experience for data visualization consumers would be custom narrative text written by a data visualization author, tailored to a visualization, that can display dynamic data points based on filters applied by a consumer.

Enhancement Request / Service Request:

Enhance text box component in OAC so that it allows the insertion of dynamic data points.

    I think you can try the Language Narrative Visualization. You can also change the level of detail and type .

    Hi,

    Is there any update on this request or workaround ?

    Regards,

  • You can use parameters in Textbox. You will need to define parameters to hold the data that you want to show, so your example will be something like:

    On average, Application @parameter("app")('') has @parameter("ActiveUsers")('') active monthly users.
