prompt the user to choose a certain date and then use it for the local data filter [using JSL]Hi,
I have a date column in the mmddyyyy format. I need to print it out to the user to choose from and then use a local data filter to filter the selected dates in Graph builder.
The issue I'm having is that when I try to print the data to the user, it shows it as a long integer that I can't understand. Any suggestions is appreciated.
I have attached a picture of the date column from the data table.

Re: prompt the user to choose a certain date and then use it for the local data filter [using JSL]Thank you @txnelson for the suggestion. I looked it up and I think it is a good option for my application. The issue I'm having is that the date(s) I'm trying to make the user choose from, might not be sequential. It might be two different days (1st and 15th of the month). The function allows a range between these dates to choose from where I only want the user to choose from these two dates only. The other issue is that it might be more than two days, I might be N number of different dates. I tried think of a solution, but the function could work for two distinguished dates, but not sure how to make it general for N number of date(s).
Do you have any suggestions @txnelson . Thank you so much !
Re: prompt the user to choose a certain date and then use it for the local data filter [using JSL]Do you have a way to determine what all possible dates they could choose from?
