Conditional Expressions

Infoveave board expressions are powerful tools that allow you to create dynamic and customized data visualizations by setting conditions over widget measures and dimension values. These expressions enable you to control the behavior and appearance of other widgets in your Infoboard based on specific conditions, making dashboards more interactive and insightful.

Infoveave Expressions are special rules that allows you to create dynamic and customized data visualizations by setting conditions over widget measures and dimension values. These expressions enable you to control the behavior and appearance of other widgets in your Infoboard based on specific conditions, making dashboards more interactive and insightful.

Note

The expression functions are solely setting visual effects to your dashboard by setting conditions to your widgets. They are not intended for managing or modifying data

Expression Syntax

Function(<Reference>,<Condition>) = Conditional Value

Where

• <Reference> is replaced by 'Widget Name'[Measure Name] and <Condition> is replaced by [Dimension Name] ="Dimension Value".
• Function Functions are like commands that you use in data analysis to perform specific activities.
• 'Widget Name' is enclosed within single apostrophes (`) to indicate it’s a string literal, typically representing a widget name.
• Measure Name is enclosed in square brackets ([]) to represent a measure name.
• Dimension Name is enclosed in square brackets ([]) to represent a dimension name.
• "Dimension Value" is enclosed within double quotes (" ") to represent a specific dimension value.
• The mathematical operator in the expression establishes the condition.
  • The operator used here is only for demonstration purposes.
• Conditional Value specifies the value that must be met for the condition to hold true.

Note

You can configure your Expression using Measures alone. When using Dimension Name within an expression function, add the associated Dimension Value in the required format.

Configure Expressions

To configure an Expression in Infoveave, navigate to the desired Infoboard under Insights.

1. Click on the Edit icon, to start configuring the board expression.

Scenario

Example Scenario Imagine you are overseeing an Order Dashboard in Infoveave, where you want to implement a specific action based on a condition using Expressions. In this scenario, the condition is defined as follows, if the sum of online orders for Brazil is less than 150, a particular action should be triggered.

Contextual Information

In the dataset used for the Order Dashboard, we want the set the effect on the Online Orders widget. We use the measure [Orders] and the dimension [Country], specifically targeting the dimension value “Brazil.”

Configure Expression

We can configure the expression as below

SUMX('Online Orders'[Orders], [Country]="Brazil") < 150

In this expression, we sum up the online orders for Brazil and then check if it’s less than 150. This becomes the condition for our action.

Consider that we want to configure an action that changes the background color of another widget called Online Orders. Here’s how you would do it

• Option Group Select the General option group because you’re customizing the widget’s overall appearance.
• Option From the General group, choose the Background Color option. This allows you to specify the background color that the widget should change to when the condition is met.

By selecting the General option group and the Background Color option, you’re precisely defining the Action to your expression’s condition.

By these, you can see how to precisely control the behavior and appearance of your widgets, ensuring that your Dashboard provides meaningful insights and communicates important information effectively.
