Can we see dynamic data on charts using Excel Services

hi all,
i would like to know if there is any option in SharePoint 2013 for developing dynamic "responsive/interactive Charts"  with SQL server as data source. And the connection should be there online, i mean the charts should refresh data based on
the SQL data all the time. 
When i saw the feature of excel service, i could see only retrieving of data using data connection from sql and after adding that data to workbook, we can create responsive charts with required filters. However, i dint see option of data refresh from external
source without opening the excel work book. 
What i want is, once i added the chart using chart webpart, if any new data is added or modified in external data source i.e., like SQL in my case, the chart should automatically updated with new changes in the data.
please let me know if my requirement can be fulfilled using OOB.
thank you beforehand .
Thanks & Regards Raj

Hi ALL,
Linda, I know you are only trying to help but when you answer questions where you don't know the answer you only mislead the user asking the question at best but every one else who reviews the post... we have been performing data refresh on page
render and every 5 minutes by default since SharePoint 2007. We build Business Intelligence Dashboards and Score Cards using Live data with Excel Services, and features like PowerPivot, PowerView
Data in a Microsoft Office Excel workbook that has been displayed in Excel Services can come from two different locations. The data may be stored directly in the workbook, or it may be stored in an external data source, such as in a database or
in an Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) cube.
If the data comes from an external data source, the workbook author or administrator has defined the connection information, often in an Office data connection (.odc) file, which describes how to locate, log in, query, and access the external data source.
When you are connected to an external data source, you can perform a refresh operation to retrieve the updated data. Each time that you refresh data, you see the most recent version of the data, including any changes that were made to the data since it was
last refreshed.
Refresh all connections
On the Excel Web Access toolbar, under the Update menu, click
Refresh All Connections.
Periodic refresh
By using Office Excel 2007, the workbook author can specify that data automatically refreshes at a specified interval after the workbook is opened for each connection in the workbook. For example, an inventory database may be updated every hour, and so the
workbook author has defined the workbook to automatically refresh every 60 minutes. For more information, see Microsoft Office Excel 2007 Help.
A Web Part author can select or clear the Allow Excel Web Access Periodic Data Refresh property to enable or disable this periodic refresh operation, if the property has been defined by the workbook author. When the time interval elapses,
by default, the following refresh alert prompt is displayed at the bottom of the Excel Web Access Web Part:
Refresh data for <List of Connections>? (Now) (Always) (Don't ask me again)
An Excel Web Access Web Part author can also set the Display Periodic Data Refresh Prompt property to control the behavior of the message that is displayed when Excel Services performs a periodic data refresh during a session:
Always      means that the message is displayed with a prompt at each interval.
Optionally      means that a user can choose to continue periodic refresh without displaying a message.
Never      means that Excel Web Access performs a periodic refresh without displaying a message or prompt.
For more information, see
Excel Web Access Web Part custom properties.
I have only listed a couple of the ways you can have Excel services update external data, this is not an exhaustive list

  • Can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ?

    Hello!
    I have a report where one of its parameters refers to a list of values (LOVs). This list of values is an SQL Query type. When the data source used in the report is defined in the BI Publisher server, I'm able to get the report parameters using the getReportParameters() function in my application. However, if the data source is not defined the function throws an exception, which is understandable.
    I decided to dynamically set the data source so that even if the data source used by the report is not defined in the BI Publisher server, it still will be able to get the LOVs for the parameter. I tried setting the JDBCDataSource of the dynamicDataSource for the ReportRequest object that I passed to the getReportParameters() function. Please see the sample code below:
    reportRequest.dynamicDataSource = new BIP10.BIPDataSource();
    reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource = new BIP10.JDBCDataSource();
    setReportDataSource(reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource, connectstr, jdbc, dc); //function to set the values for JDBCDataSource object
    reportParams = webrs.getReportParameters(reportRequest, uid, pwd); //call the getReportParameters
    I was expecting this to work as this is what I did to dynamically set the data source before calling the runReport function. So, my question is -- can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ? I tried this both in versions 10g and 11g. It does not seem to work on both versions.

    report_id column of apex_application_page_ir_rpt can help us uniquely identify each saved report.
    We can assign this report_id value to a page item and this page item can be put in the Report ID Item text box of the Advanced section of the Report Attributes page of the IR.
    This should load the saved report identified by report_id and you can get rid of javascript

  • Final user's can not see the data due to limited authorization.

    We have created a InfoSet with three info Objects, 0Account, 0Costcenter and 0COMP_CODE. 0Costcenter have an attribute retail location  0RT_LOCATIO.
    0RT_LOCATIO is an authorization relevant object. We as consultants can execute the infoset properly, but final user's with limited authorizations can not see the data because of authorization failier
    We hae several options to solve the issue, deleselect the auth. flag in the infoobject; delete the infoobject from the attributes of the cost center or create an authorization object and assign it to the final user's profile. But we don't want to go that way.
    My question is, is there any way to avoid including this attribute in the infoset definition? We are not using it in the query and we don't need it, so if we could delete it from the infoset (in the same way you add or delete infoobjects from an Infocube) without changing the cost center aster data, we will have our problem solved.
    Does anyone how to do this (if possible)?
    Thanks in advance!

    Just do two things to find the authorization check failed for that user.
    1. Execute SU53 output and find out the authoirzation check failed. If yes, please send that to BASIS Team.
    2. Next one, switch on the authorization trace in ST01 and ask that user to see that data. if the user is failed with authorization issue. switch off the trace in ST01 and find out the issue.
    Do this way, if it is not successful you can go for any other alternate way.
    Hope this would help you.

  • ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 external drive enclosure USB 3.00 can't see my data!

    ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 external drive enclosure USB 3.00 can't see my data!
    Hello to the community,
    So indeed a pretty self-explanatory title. However you might not think so later.
    I just received the ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 today from ebay. (But it's a product of RaidSonic) over in Germany see link:
    www.raidsonic.de/en/products/external-cases.php?we_objectID=8887
    The problem:
    I have a large 1.5 TB seagate drive (15mm in height) which was originally in a iOmega external case (which was poor, thats another story).
    The ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 is an extremely portable hot swappable enclosure/caddy. (Please do see the images from the above link). However when I plug my seagate HDD into the ICY adapter, it, my Mac cannot see the data I have on it whilst using this adapter! But If I use the old one my data can be seen, see images!.
    You see in disk utility, before the above. A small dialog box giving me three options "initialize, and two others" appears, initialize takes me into disk utility. Shows as "ASMT 2105 Media" (not one of the partitions on the drive).
    Below see connected to new ICYBOX enclosure/case: (don't ask me why it inserted upside down?)
    And below using the old USB3.0 sata cable and adapter from the previous enclosure. Note that it works, my data can be seen, read and wrote. On the monitor you can see my "Data core" partition mounted!
    As you can see the above is the drive plugged in using the old adapter and cable (SATA chip + USB 3.0) from iOmega. This works no problems you can see my partitions mounted and yes they do work.
    This is disappointing as far as the  ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 is concerned for me. It should just work out of the box. But no it can't mount or even in anyway see my partitions that are definitely there. I want to use the ICYBOX IB-AC6031-U3 for this drive and should be able to but I cannot reformat and don't want to as this is the biggest drive a have at the moment.
    There has to be a way around this, I have contacted RaidSonic who make the adapter and await a response. I have also done some  web searching but nothing promising has turned up.
    Your input will be greatly appreciated,
    Many thanks,
    B-B

  • I can't see the data logger to move a lookout application to another computer

    Claudio,
    I'm not sure if I understand your question.
    1) What version of Lookout are you using?
    2) Are you using a server-client relationship and you can't see the data in your clients?
    3) When you move your Lookout process, have you adjusted where to find your historical database (this can be set under File -> Modify Process or if you are using a hypertrend, you can make sure that your path is pointing to the appropriate location - under the trend properties).
    Please give me a little more information and I will try to help you resolve this issue. Thanks.

  • Can't see drum data

    Ok, I just downloaded Logic Pro X, upgrading from Logic Pro 8. I opened up the "Electronic" template and started messing around. Somehos I got the drum machine track, Epic Electro, to play a drum pattern, but I can't see any data for this. I've tried opening up the editors and scrolling around, but I can't see any notes. Where is this data? It's really bugging me!
    Cheers
    Steve

    Those drum tracks are probably using Ultrabeat which is a self cotnained Drum Sequencer (Think 808)
    Open the Ultrabeat interface and you will see the patterns programmed into it...
    More info on Ultrabeat can be found in the Logic Pro Instruments Guide found in Logic's Help menu

  • I'm in cycle mode, and 'merge' is clicked in preferences. However, when I record, my previous track data keeps getting overwritten. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong. Interestingly, I can still see the data in the region.

  • Why in SE16 we can not  see New Data Table for standard DSO

    Hi,

    Regards,

    Hi Sushant,
    It is possible to see the 3 DSO tables data in through SE16. May be you do not have authorization to see data through SE16.

  • I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use.  I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail.

    I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use.  I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail.  I can delete other files but several XLS files are giving me this message.

    You said it was a network drive.  So is someone else on the network using that same file or may have have left with excel still accessing it on their system?

  • How can i see how many people are using my apple id without changing the password ?

    how can i see how many people are using my apple id without changing because some people have it

    I'm not sure that you can. Why have so many people got your password? So many in fact, that you don't know how many.
    You can see how many computers are authorised to play any songs you have purchased from the iTunes Store, but that isn't quite the same thing.
    Perhaps a better idea would be to change the password and not let anyone else know what it is. That would at least prevent anyone else from changing it and locking you out of your own account.

  • How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    Well, let take the personal service point of view : let say, I had two calendars on my iCloud account : one for work, one for my leisure activities.
    On my MacBook Pro that I use at home as well as at my office, I would want the two calendars to show and since I am alone in my office, I would want the alerts for both my work and my leisure activities to show (and make a sound at the same time).
    But on my iPad that I only use at home, I would only want my leisure activities alerts to show (and make a sound) and on my iPhone that I only use for work, I would only want my work alerts to show (and make a sound).
    That is a personal service that simply does not work.
    Why would Apple give us the opportunity to hide some calendars on certain devices but not allow us, on these same devices, to switch off the alerts linked to these calendars that we have chosen to hide ? Why having alerts of calendars that do not even show on these devices ?
    And I am an Apple fan since 1984, since the very first Mac. I still do believe Macs and Apple devices and/or software (iOS, OS X and others...) are much better and much more efficient than " Microsoft, Windows, Google and other Android devices and software.
    But that does not mean everything's perfect (and I find that quite normal).
    Nevertheless, in this case, letting alerts make a sound on a device where a specific calendar is not shown, that does not make any sense : when uncheking those calendars, the alerts linked to those calendars should be automatically switch off (but alerts should be able to work on the calendars that are shown.)
