Ability to create dynamic titles for a visualization

Patrick Northcraft

It would be helpful to have the ability to make a visualization title dynamic based on existing properties. For example, if we have a filter on the workbook, I would like to be able to reference the value of that filter in the visualization title, either by using a "tag" system of some type (similar to other BI tools out there) or some other means. See the example screenshot below.

If there is an existing workaround for this, please let me know!

I think you can do it using Parameters.

Thanks for this! I'm having some difficulties getting parameters to work in this specific use case, as the filter in my example is part of a hierarchy. It also seems a quite tedious workaround to have to configure a parameter for each filter just for a text reference, so I'll leave this idea open as other tools have simplified solutions for this and it would be awesome to see something similar come to OAC!

Thank you for the feedback. I copy @Avinash Krishnaram-Oracle for awareness.

Hello,

Parameters is the recommended approach. You can with a single click create and bind a parameter from list filter surface and use the @parameters syntax on the title.

Can you explain the issue you are encountering with your use case?

Thanks.

Thanks for the hint! I was able to figure out how to do this. Documenting below for anyone else who needs it.

To "bind a parameter", you need to click on the filter and then hit the (x) on the right hand side, then "Create Parameter":

Clicking this creates a parameter bound to the filter. You can then add it to the viz title by using the syntax @parameter("name"). You must use double quotes.

This resolves my issue. This can be marked as existing functionality.
