Today the Text fields of Stream Datasets can be show only as Legends in charts.

Would be very useful to have a Card that can show Text fields in the same way it can show Number fields.

This card will enable pre formatted text fields from the applications to be shown on Real-Time dashboards

RE: Text Tile for Real-Time Data

This has been a request since 2016... Really need this feature to push my software applications forward.

RE: Text Tile for Real-Time Data

The inability to stream text really hinders dashboard creation. Why does MS care if I push/stream a numeric value "123" or TEXT value "ABC"?

RE: Text Tile for Real-Time Data

In addition it would be nice to place a DateTime into a card as well. However, as long as text was done, you could format the date as text and get around it.

RE: Text Tile for Real-Time Data

It is possible to define in the streaming dataset an attribute of type "Text" but there is not tile that allows to display the value.
