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?
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…
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.

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…
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…
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…
