NOTIFICATIONS – my client wants to receive automated notifications of particular data events. The Konect User Guide (4.7.1) shows how to send a text to users. Is there a way to send data-driven alerts? (alternative is to do it in Power BI).

While you can only have pseudo thematics based on list values, there is a work around using queries and individual styles. A common example of this is where we have a text calculated field tracking a range of activities at a site and the calculation returns a value of Proposed, Started, Partially Completed and Completed. In this case a style is…Read More

Hi Pete, thanks for posting regarding this. Can you provide an example of the data event that may occur on the client side? Let me know and I will seek to provide a more detailed response.
