I have created a vacation planning in Oracle APEX via a GANTT chart.
I need additional columns behind the label (similar to a grid) for information at the corresponding employee/resource (free vacation days for example).
Does anyone know if this is possible? Or how can I implement this. Unfortunately I could not find a way to do this.

I have a Power-BI dashboard that was created some time ago. It’s data source is a SharePoint-Online list. Since the Power-BI dashboard was created, several new fields have been added to the SharePoint list. Now I am being asked to add a new page to the dashboard that reports on those new fields. However, I have not found a way to get the existing Power-BI list/dataset to show the new fields.
Refreshing the data does refresh the values, but refresh does not add the new fields.
I’ve spend the last 4 hours looking on the internet for a solution. The only thing I have been able to do so far is to attach the list again with a different name- the new fields DO show up when I do this. (I can’t just replace the older Power-BI list/dataset because there have been several calculated columns and measures added.)
I can work with this and create the report, but is this the only way? It doesn’t seem like it should be.
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
(I'm using Power BI April 2021 and Sharepoint Online)
So, it looks like there's no good answer to this issue. I found that adding another instance of the reference Sharepoint list, that included the new columns, did work (however inelegant). That seems to be the best direct answer for times when the older pbix file must continue to be used.
What I ended up doing, though, was to create a new separate pbix file which included the latest version of the Sharepoint List. This was the best solution for my organization since it will allow us to be more focused on the specific manufacturing processes involved.
Thanks to #Jon and #Alejandro for their efforts to help!
If you have access to PowerAutomate you could refresh the dataset creating a flow so that given a certain time (say, once or twice a day) the dataset gets refreshed with the new created items.
Otherwise if you are working with the service version of Power BI you can program a refresh of the dataset directly from the workspace going to the settings of the dataset. You would have to have a gateway set for that which could be in personal mode or not.
Also if you want to update the data in the service version you could do it manually too in the workspace.
I am working on the reporting project that uses PowerBI as the data visualization tool.
I need create a processing approval workflow on the PowerBI tool. After seeing the Dashboard, the employer can approve some exception cases and the workflow can direct connect with email or ticket system.
There are 2 cases:
Approve for the whole dashboard that supports to be easy. I don't have any problem here.
Approve for singular object/row in a table chart. So I must generate number of buttons according to the number of row, which I need help. I don't know how to generate dynamic number of buttons and attached to row. And how to program/code it to create a view or action to become an approval step.
Button PowerBI
In this screenshot, my plan is create buttons in each row and each button has the same function with parameter is username or IP. And after that I can send email to the user and notice him/her that his/her case is approve for exception.
I find this https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/A-simple-and-fun-guide-to-Microsoft-Flow-and-Power-BI/ba-p/151530. But it doesn't seem helpful. Anyone here has ever dealt with approval case like this.
Is PowerBI able to do the approval process like I want?
Thank you so much.
First: This kind of goes against the spirit of BI in general. BI is for data visualization, exploration, etc. It's not really a UI for inserting data and executing tasks. Maybe you want instead to have a front end that lets you do things, and only needs to handle a very limited dataset? PowerApps is good for that. If the dataset is less than 1000 rows, this could work.
Second: I'm pretty sure it's not possible to create a button (like one that you'd see in an HTML page) that does what you want it to do in a Power BI table visual.
Third: There is a "drill through" button capability, but this just lets you navigate from one area in the report to another, not send an email or execute a Power Automate flow or anything like that. You may have seen a button on a table visual, but it's misleading. It's not really programmable like an HTML/JS button on a website.

That said, within the last 1.5 years or so, we now have the PowerApps add-in available. You could create an app that utilizes your streaming dataset, create a gallery that looks at that dataset and creates a kind of table with buttons on it, and then each button is set to execute the flow you've created in Power Automate.

All of this is very, extremely straightforward, but beware, the PowerApp will start to cost you extra money depending on where your data is housed. If it's a SQL server, you'll need both a premium PowerApp license and Power Automate license too.
Sorry for the not so great news, but this is kind of a limitation of Power BI.
I'm pretty new to Power BI.
I have a number of measures I've created in my Power BI app, data related to information requests that come to my team.
I've put these measures into a Bar Chart. I also have a table that lists details about these data requests. I want to be able to select an item in the Bar Graph and have the records in the Table to adjust to just those related to the selection.
I did this once by accident when i was fiddling around, now I can't figure out how i did it.
I also have a date filter set to affect all of my pages.
Any advice would be awesome.
Thanks in advance.

Try going to Model (highlighted in the screenshot, left side) and then Manage Relationships (highlighted as well). Then click on Autodetect. If Autodetect does not solve your problem, then you will have to create new relationships manually.
Is it possible to create a drill down graph with apache superset?
Say for example - population of all countries and onclick of a country, population of all states within that country should be drawn and onclick of state, population of state should be drawn.
Can someone help me with steps/tips to create this using apache superset as I did not find any example/option to create the same.
There is a walkthrough on this from ApacheCon Asia 2022 on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YnpKLZ1PRM
More than I can summarize here for you
Please see the response of mistercrunch (one of the creators of Apache Superset) below or here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/2890.
Drill down assumes the framework is aware of hierarchies which Superset isn't at the moment. We encourage our users to slice and dice by entering the explore mode, applying filters and altering the "Group By" field which is pretty easy and very flexible. It's an open field instead of a guided flow.
Preset, which uses Apache Superset, has implemented a feature for Drilling to Chart details. You can find more information about it here:
https://docs.preset.io/docs/drilling-to-chart-details
There is also a pull request for a drill down prototype but I don't think it was integrated to Superset, according to the comments.
https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/14688
Including this article link here in case anyone finds it helpful: https://www.tetranyde.com/blog/embedding-superset
It is possible by using custom JavaScript and charts.
In Oracle Apex 5, a user can manipulate an Interactive Report's data with a number of actions (Sort, Filter, Group By, Control Break...). However, when the report is downloaded as a CSV only the Filter action is retained from the manipulations. How can you get the download of an Interactive Report to display the report as is?
The closest solution I could find is a plugin found on github, see Interactive Report to Excel v2
At the time, it worked for the particular report we had an issue with (Control Break on one column, with some Sorting), but when I tried it on a Group By it didn't work.
We have had good results with APEX_IR_XLSX and have added our own customization pieces to it quite easily.
