[Shuvashish Chatterjee]

Dear All

I am looking for assitance to set up a dashboard with controls which will take in data from a URL.  It will be great if you can point me to an example. 

Thank you in Advance.

The specific code in my case is : 

function drawVisualization () {

    var query = new google.visualization.Query('http://spreadsheets.google.com/tq?key=0AvLT-nrDD-z7dHJwWkJwSFZTNGZzRVpTY1JVRzRtVUE&pub=1');

    

    query.setQuery('SELECT A, B, C, D ,E, F ');

    

    query.send(function (response) {        

        if (response.isError()) {

            alert('Error in query: ' + response.getMessage() + ' ' + response.getDetailedMessage());

            return;

        }

        var data = response.getDataTable();

      

      var regionFilter = new google.visualization.ControlWrapper({

    'controlType': 'CategoryFilter',

    'containerId': 'control1',

    'options': {

      'filterColumnLabel': 'Region',

      'ui': {

        'allowTyping': false,

        'allowMultiple': false,

        'selectedValuesLayout': 'belowStacked'

      }

    },

    // Define an initial state, i.e. a set of metrics to be initially selected.

    'state': {'selectedValues': ['India']}

  });

    var yearFilter = new google.visualization.ControlWrapper({

    'controlType': 'CategoryFilter',

    'containerId': 'control2',

    'options': {

      'filterColumnLabel': 'Year',

      'ui': {

        'allowTyping': false,

        'allowMultiple': false,

        'selectedValuesLayout': 'belowStacked'

      }

    },

    // Define an initial state, i.e. a set of metrics to be initially selected.

    'state': {'selectedValues': ['2011']}

  });  

      

   var barChart = new google.visualization.ChartWrapper({

    'chartType': 'ColumnChart',

    'containerId': 'chart1',

    'options': {

      'width': 400,

      'height': 180

    },

    'view': {'columns': [3,4]}

  });

       

  // Create the dashboard.

  var dashboard = new google.visualization.Dashboard(document.getElementById('dashboard')).

    // Configure the category picker to affect the gauge chart

    bind(regionFilter, barChart).

    // Draw the dashboard

    draw(data);

      });

}

What is the problem you are having?  Glancing over your code, it looks OK, but I can't test it because your spreadsheet isn't published.

Thanks for responding.

I am quite a new to scripts, whwen i publish it as a web app  / run the code i get an error : ReferenceError: "google" is not defined. 

The spreadsheet link is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvLT-nrDD-z7dHJwWkJwSFZTNGZzRVpTY1JVRzRtVUE&usp=sharing

You are missing the Google jsapi script tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.google.com/jsapi"></script>

I tried that, however i still continue to get the same error .. Script

[asgallant]

That is an Apps Script environment, not javascript (Apps Script is based on javascript, but they are not completely compatible).  You will need to consult the Visualization API Apps Script Documentation for instructions on proceeding with this.

Thanks for the info.
