\n\nField\n\n\n\nDescription\n\n
\n\nData source\n\n\n\nYou have selected an indicator data source in [Create a gauge data visualization in the Visualization Designer](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/create-dv-gauge-ac.md).\n\n
\n\nMetric\n\n
\n\nLabel\n\n\n\nLabel of the metric. By default it is the same as the name of the data source.\n\n
\n\nTime aggregation\n\n\n\nTime aggregation to apply to the metric, such as 7-day running SUM or By-month AVG. Default is the same as the indicator period. For more information, see [Applying time series aggregations](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/performance-analytics/applying-time-series-aggregations.md).\n\n
\n\nSelect an aggregation \\(Data snapshots indicators only\\)\n\n\n\nThe aggregation is based on the Data snapshots indicator's configuration. You cannot change it in the context of creating a data visualization. **Count** counts the number of records. **Count distinct** counts the number of unique values rather than the total number of records. For example, if the name of a user appears more than once in a list, the user is only counted once. Other choices perform the specified aggregate operation, such as summing the values in a field across records.\n\n
\n\nField \\(Data snapshots indicators only\\)\n\n\n\nThe field on the Data snapshot's source to which the aggregate is applied. Required for all aggregates except Count.\n\n
\n\nShow incomplete periods \\(Data snapshots indicators only\\)\n\n\n\nSelect to display values from the period in progress. Clear this check box to show only the values for completed periods.\n\n
\n\nFormat values\n\n\n\nSelect to open the **Formatting values** dialog. For more information, see [Value formatting in reports](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/value-formatting-reports.md).\n\n
\n\nFormatting values\n\n
\n\nUse custom formatting\n\n\n\nOption to use custom formatting on the component.\n\n
\n\nDecimal precision\n\n\n\nNumber of decimals to show in the metric. This field is available only when the **Use custom formatting** option is activated.\n\n
\n\nRounding\n\n\n\nType of rounding to use to reach the number of decimals in the **Decimal precision** field. Options include:- Up `UP`\n- Down `DOWN`\n- Ceiling `CEILING`\n- Floor `FLOOR`\n- Half up `HALF_UP`\n- Half down `HALF_DOWN`\n- Half even `HALF_EVEN`\n\n **Note:** Only available when **Use custom formatting** is true.\n\n
\n\nUse the thousands group separator\n\n\n\nOption to use a comma to separate groups of thousands.**Note:** Only available when **Use custom formatting** is true.\n\n
\n\nEnable abbreviation\n\n\n\nOption to use an alphabetical abbreviation. For example, M to represent million. **Note:** Only available when **Use custom formatting** is true.\n\n
\n\nExample\n\n\n\nExample of the final value to show in the component. **Note:** Only available when **Use custom formatting** is true\n\n
\n\nDate range\n\n
\n\nApply date range\n\n\n\nWhen turned on, this option allows date filters on the dashboard or UIB page to apply to this visualization. The date range can also be configured in the visualization, but date filters override visualization settings.\n\n
\n\nShow data for selected period as\n\n\n\nAvailable when **Apply date range** is selected.The indicator aggregation logic for how scores from the selected period are shown, such as Latest score, Sum, or Average.\n\n
\n\nSet absolute period\n\n\n\nOption to set absolute start and end date.Available when **Apply date range** is selected.\n\n
\n\nPeriod start\n\n\n\nStart date for the absolute period.This property applies only when **Set absolute period** is true.\n\n
\n\nPeriod end\n\n\n\nEnd date for the absolute period.This property applies only when **Set absolute period** is true.\n\nSelect **Use current date for period end** to automatically update the end date to the current date. \\(Not available if the start date is in the future.\\)\n\n
\n\nPeriod\n\n\n\nTime interval for each date period. - Days `D`\n- Months `M`\n- Years `Y`\n\n This property applies only when **Set absolute period** is false.\n\n
\n\nNumber of periods\n\n\n\nNumber of date periods to display. This property applies only when **Set absolute period** is true.\n\n
\n\nData update\n\n
\n\nFollow filters\n\n\n\nFollow filters set for a page. When enabled, the visualization displays on a workspace with the filters set by the page. Toggle off to disable a visualization from accepting any filter input.\n\n
\n\nShow filter icon\n\n\n\nOption to show the filter icon and the number of filters impacting the visualization. If a filter is not selected to apply to a visualization, the icon does not show. Toggle off to hide the filter icon and number of filters applied.\n\n
\n\nRefresh after being away for X min.\n\n\n\nTriggered when you navigate away from the dashboard that contains the data visualization to another page in the same workspace, includingPlatform Analytics experience. Sets how many minutes you will be on another page before the visualization automatically refreshes when you navigate back.Do not confuse this property with the **Scheduled repetition** setting on inline dashboards. This latter property refreshes the entire dashboard, and applies only while that dashboard is open.\n\n
\n\nReal-time update\n\n\n\nOption to update score in real time.**Note:**\n\n- This setting is available for automated, non-scripted indicators with a non-scripted breakdown mapping.\n- Real-time score updating does not support MIN, MAX, or COUNT DISTINCT aggregations.\n\n
\n\nInfo messages\n\n
\n\nSet custom message when no data\n\n\n\nOption to configure a custom message that displays when no data is returned.\n\n
\n\nIllustration\n\n\n\nAn illustration to include in the message.\n\n
\n\nHeading\n\n\n\nHeader text of the message that describes why no data was returned.\n\n
\n\nContent\n\n\n\nSecondary text of the message that provides additional detail.\n\n
\n\nAlignment\n\n\n\nThe alignment of the illustration and text in the message.\n\n
