Variable Manager (Similar to Beast Mode Manager)
Starting to use some variables in our instance, and I want to make sure I have a good way to review/manage them as they are created/changed. I checked in the Beast Mode Manager thinking that would be the most logical place to find them, but unless I'm missing it I don't see a way to filter to them (tried searching by name…

NUMBER_FORMAT function
Please consider the implementation of a NUMBER_FORMAT function in Beast Mode in the same vein that we have DATE_FORMAT and TIME_FORMAT. This would take a number, and based on parameters, format the number (add thousand separator commas, percent sign, currency sign). Numerous discussions have been had in the forums about…

Formatting for Variables that have different ranges
I have a data set with a variable where the user can select a metric to view. Some choices are dollars / values and others are percentages. Any way to get the format to change depending on the metric chosen? As a side question to this, could the conditional formatting of the table be different based on the metric?

Control variable options that are populated by a dataset field or copy and paste
When creating a variable, we should be able to populate options based on a selected dataset field. Alternatively, there should be an option to paste values from spreadsheet rows to populate the variable options. Here's my use case: I built a dashboard that allows users to compare different markets. There are 150+ markets…

Variable Response in Beast Mode
In the Beast Mode below, End Date 2, Start Date 2, Measure Selection and Client Select are all variables. For the Measure Selection and Client Select, is there an alternative to hardcoding the literal value for each Client Select & Measure Selection permutation? Is there a way to take the variable response and feed it into…

How can I set up a text box Variable that can search for a text string in a field?
Hi Domo Community, Like the title says, I'd like to set up a Variable to be used in a dashboard where users can input text and it will search for the text string in related reports and return the results. For example, I have a "Description" field for items. I'd like to search "6mm bolt" in the Variable/text box and have it…

Variable Control Title and Descriptions - Ability to Format Text
The current way that Variable controls show up on a dashboard are non-configurable. To add to this, they look completely different than the current Dropdown Selector Filter Cards. My ask would be to allow formatting for the Variable Title and Description to be selected when Editing the Dashboard, with the following types…

Importing/Updating List from Dataset into Variable
We have found many use cases for a way to update a variable by bringing in a distinct list from a dataset. We've created a work around to do this through Workflows but having this be an included feature of variables would be ideal.

Variable & Control showing in a chart
In an App, to use a variable, you need to add a control → basically a filter card in an App or expand the card and see the control on the right side of the chart. However, it'll be easier if the control variable is showing in a specific chart like this, this way I don't need a separate card for to pick the variable control…

Efficient Way to Rollover Filters with New Month
I have a dashboard with monthly volumes by service line. In order to only show the prior month that is closed, I manually set a filter to the prior month. Instead of going through each card and updating this filter manually to the next month (current state), is there a way to automate this rollover? Or perhaps have a…

Quick Filter Displayed on Dashboard or App
Could quick filters on cards become something users can interact with from the dashboard or app? Right now, a viewer can only interact with it if they expand the card—ideally we could toggle the quick filter being viewed in the "appearance" settings and any dashboard or app viewer could interact with it right away. Or the…

Date Range Variables
Hello, Just getting into Variables and wondering if its possible to use Variables with Date Ranges. What I'm aiming for is this: - having two variables with each being a date range. IE variable 1 = 1/1/24-5/31/24 and variable 2 = 1/1/25-1/14/25. So the two periods can be any date range, and do not have to be the same…

Add dynamic columns in variable dashboards
If Domo has the option to add dynamic texts in columns, that would be super helpful for variable dashboards. Currently, I have variable buttons of TY, LY, TW, Last 2 Weeks, etc, and Spend 1 and Spend 2 as column titles but if we can have TY Spend and LY Spend and TW Spend, etc. as the column titles, that would be an…

MS Office PowerPoint Variable Integration
Hey Community, We are looking to get some better integration with variables in the office plugins. Specifically, we are looking at the Powerpoint plugin, and we want to be able to bring in cards and dashboards that have Beast Modes utilizing Variables in the calculations. Perhaps something like you do for Filters, the…

Smart Text as a Variable
At the card level it would be beneficial to know what the current operating environment is for a card and leverage that information in a beast mode. For example, if there were a "system variable" that stored what the current "Graph By" selection is, like what is already available in Smart Text, then you could have a beast…

Variable control at card-level does not ever show all variables
The UI on the variable control when looking at a card in Expand Details mode is not big enough to actually work with the variable. It seems to only populate 2 options, and the scroll bar makes it super hard to actually see what they are. Unlike Quick Filters, which expand to the height of however many items are in them…

BeastMode code to take one value from each category
This question is going to be really difficult to describe, but I will try anyway. I am trying to get a unit count for each facility, the problem is that bc we filter by time and different facilities can gain units over time, I can not just have one row per facility, I have a row for each month. That being said I need it to…

Increase Variable Description Display Options
Currently if your Variable Description is too long, it just cuts off with … and there is no hover interactivity. Please allow more display options for the Variable control descriptions on a dashboard, such as word wrap or display on hover.

Unable to add a control to the dashboard
Hi I created a variable and implemented it at the card level where it behaves as required. However when I try to add it to the dashboard via the adding controls icon, I get the message "Add a Variable to a Card on this Page to add a control here". I have already added the card there. When I go the edit mode for that card,…

Sort or Re-Sort Available Values in Variable List
Variables continue to be a game changer for our company. One particular use case we have implemented is to create a variable with a list of all item attributes. As the list has grown the available attributes are no longer sorted in a logical way (for example, alphabetical A-Z). I think everyone could benefit from the…

Dynamic Date Range Comparison Using Variables
Hi there, I recently saw this video on DOMO Variables from Zack Cameron and around the 17:30 mark he's using variables to control the Time Range (YYD,QTD,MTD,WTD) and Time Comparison Option (YoY, PoP). This functionality would be perfect for the dashboard I'm building out, but I'm having trouble recreating it. The code for…

Same Variable Name on Different Datasets
Hello, I was wondering if there's a workaround to use the same variable name across different datasets? Right now it seems like variable names need to be unique and used across the instance. And so when we try to create some generic names, the variables would need to have different names. Is it possible for one set of…

Include Variable modifiers inside a filter card
I have my dashboard set up so that the filter options displayed are modified by the value of the variable. EX: notice how the filter by time options change depending on the time frame adjuster value in the screenshots. This is the best way I have found to do it, but my employers find it still extremely unintuitive. I think…

Can you set a default a value for a control that may be different than a default value on dashboard?
We have set a control value set on the card, but once we drop it onto a dashboard, the default value changes. In this first view you will see we are using filter cards to set values within the dashboard. Here is this view is our default value on the card, which is what we want this card to use. Then here is what the card…
