Build Government Trust with Data
Tyler Technologies
Learn about what data leaders in the State of Washington and King County, WA are doing to increase trust in government.
Create Measures within Stories
Tyler Technologies
Data portal users can now create measures within stories, as they have been able to for visualizations. With this change, users no longer have create measures independent of the stories or dashboards they intend to use them in. Additionally, the asset selector has been updated to present in the order of most to least used options based on collected usage data.
Min/Max Aggregation for Non-Numeric Table Columns
Tyler Technologies
Previously, users could only aggregate non-numeric table columns by COUNT. Now, users can sort and aggregate their text, date, and boolean table columns in the table visualization. Use MAX when you want to see the top or most recent value and MIN when you want to see the bottom or oldest values in these columns.
