Dashboards | Clustered bar chart

[bpdvries]

I have an api query which returns the results of per day, the total number of entry actions per page, over a period of time.

import { rumUserSessionsClient } from '@dynatrace-sdk/client-classic-environment-v1';

const query = 'SELECT useraction.name AS "Entry Actions", COUNT(usersession.userSessionId) AS "Number of Sessions", AVG(useraction.duration) AS "Average session duration" FROM useraction WHERE useraction.application=\'PRD - B2C - Calvin Klein\' AND useraction.type="Load" AND useraction.isEntryAction IS TRUE GROUP BY useraction.name, useraction.type LIMIT 15';

export default async function () {
  // Define the start and end dates for your desired range
  const startDate = new Date('2023-11-17T00:00:00Z'); // Replace with your start date
  const endDate = new Date('2023-11-28T00:00:00Z'); // Replace with your end date

  // Adjust timestamps to UTC
  const startTimestampUTC = startDate.getTime();
  const endTimestampUTC = endDate.getTime();

  // Adjust timestamps to UTC+1
  const startTimestamp = startTimestampUTC - 60 * 60 * 1000;
  const endTimestamp = endTimestampUTC - 60 * 60 * 1000;

  // Iterate over each day in the range
  const records = [];
  let currentDate = new Date(startDate);

  while (currentDate <= endDate) {
    // Calculate timestamps for the current day
    const startOfDay = new Date(currentDate);
    startOfDay.setUTCHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
    const startTimestamp = startOfDay.getTime();

    const endOfDay = new Date(currentDate);
    endOfDay.setUTCHours(23, 59, 59, 999);
    const endTimestamp = endOfDay.getTime();

    // Make Dynatrace SDK request for the current day
    const response = await rumUserSessionsClient.getUsqlResultAsTable({
      query: query,
      startTimestamp: startTimestamp,
      endTimestamp: endTimestamp
    });

    // Process the response and add to records
    const columnNames = response.columnNames;
    const values = response.values;

    const entryActionTotals = {};

    values.forEach(row => {
      const entryAction = row[columnNames.indexOf("Entry Actions")];
      const sessions = parseInt(row[columnNames.indexOf("Number of Sessions")], 10);

      // Accumulate totals for each entry action
      if (!entryActionTotals[entryAction]) {
        entryActionTotals[entryAction] = 0;
      }
      entryActionTotals[entryAction] += sessions;
    });

    records.push({
      date: currentDate.toISOString(),
      "Entry Action Totals": entryActionTotals
    });

    // Move to the next day
    currentDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + 1);
  }

  return records;
}

This gets me the results i am after if i visualize this in a raw format.

However i would like to be able to generate a bar chart where you see the totals for each entryaction per day over the period of time i set in the query. So basically a clustered bar chart. Is this possible to archieve?

hi @bpdvries

It looks like your output contains complex records, which show in record output unlike the raw output.

You are also not outputting the timestamp as a string. See amended script below:

import { rumUserSessionsClient } from '@dynatrace-sdk/client-classic-environment-v1';
export default async function () {

const query = 'SELECT useraction.name AS "Entry Actions", COUNT(usersession.userSessionId) AS "Number of Sessions", AVG(useraction.duration) AS "Average session duration" FROM useraction WHERE useraction.application=\'PRD - B2C - Calvin Klein\' AND useraction.type="Load" AND useraction.isEntryAction IS TRUE GROUP BY useraction.name, useraction.type LIMIT 15';

  const startDate = new Date('2023-11-17T00:00:00Z');
  const endDate = new Date('2023-11-28T00:00:00Z');

  const chartData = [];

  let currentDate = new Date(startDate);

  while (currentDate <= endDate) {
    const startOfDay = new Date(currentDate);
    startOfDay.setUTCHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
    const startTimestamp = startOfDay.getTime();

    const endOfDay = new Date(currentDate);
    endOfDay.setUTCHours(23, 59, 59, 999);
    const endTimestamp = endOfDay.getTime();

    const response = await rumUserSessionsClient.getUsqlResultAsTable({
      query: query,
      startTimestamp: startTimestamp,
      endTimestamp: endTimestamp
    });

    const columnNames = response.columnNames;
    const values = response.values;

    values.forEach(row => {
      const entryAction = row[columnNames.indexOf("Entry Actions")];
      const sessions = parseInt(row[columnNames.indexOf("Number of Sessions")], 10);

 chartData.push({
  Date: startOfDay.toISOString(), // Use startOfDay for the timeframe in the specified format
  PageName: entryAction,
  Value: sessions
});
    });

    currentDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + 1);
  }

  return chartData;
}

Visualization parameters:

Output will look like this:

Hope this helps,

Hi Lawrence,

Thanks a lot! Do you also know if it is possible show the bar charts next to each other instead of one bar where all the data points are on top of each other?

Hi @bpdvries

That can be a Categorical Chart.

Would this fit your requirement?

Thanks,

Lawrence

Hi,

Yes. Thanks.
