We are creating a report that would need employee information. We have the employee ID, but we are also looking for the name and office location. Is it possible to have tableau hit people search to pull this information?
You can use Wildcard Match Filter Function to do so.
Then, when you type employee ID in the search box, it will filter it out to dashboard.

Use case:
I need to create a report on office groups without owner. This happens when people leave the company and their account is deleted. Their groups live further, but eventually group expiration kicks in and somebody need to take action.
Question: What is the easiest was to create query in graph to filter groups that do not have an owner?
What I currently do is:
List all groups
Enumerate this list and look for groups where the owner array is empty:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{id}/owners?$select=mail
This returns an empty array when there are no owners.
{
"#odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#directoryObjects(mail)",
"value": []
}
This, in theory, works, but takes ages as we have many 10 thousands of groups, so I am looking for a solution that makes this possible with one query. I also tried to filter the exprationDatTime property to limit results but query this doesn't seem to be supported. I mainly need groups that are due to expire.
There is no way how to get groups without owners with one query.
What you can do is to query all groups, expand owners and select only id of the group and id of the owner. It will minimize the response size.
Then iterate through the all groups and check for empty owners collection.
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups?$expand=owners($select=id)&$select=id
I am using Jira backend database to pull some columns for reporting. Assignee column in jiraissue table stores the Webkey ID/usernames of all the employees. I join this with cwd_user to get the full name of the assignee. But I also see some weird values like the ones below. I don't have a clue about how to get the display names of these users. They are not Webkey ID/usernames.
Any thoughts on what I might be missing?
The app_user table has the current userid in the lower_user_name column
If you're running a recent version of Jira, there was a GDPR-related change that causes all newly-created users to have a key starting with JIRAUSER instead of their username. Users can also be anonymized through this feature.
You can get a mapping of JIRAUSER keys to usernames through the JIRA API's Get User endpoint -- not sure where to look in the database for this mapping yet.
I have two indexes, Profile and Company. In profile it consists of user details along with userId. I have reference of userId in company index. Can I search users on company index by full name with the help of userId reference?
Company
userId:0WhaoyZhSKb6aUp181MHadWoBMM2
objectID:-Kr7JI35Zh_jSkIJw87z0WhaoyZhSKb6aUp181MHadWoBMM2
Profile
objectID::0WhaoyZhSKb6aUp181MHadWoBMM2
userName:dhcjcj
fullname:kurt angle
accountType:3
category:1
dob:996689700
email:tester31#gmail.com
fname:Kurt
gender:1
lname:Angle
What I would suggest you is to perform two calls then:
First one with the name as a search query to your Profile index to retrieve its userId
Second one with the userId as as search query to your Company index to retrieve the company
However, keep it mind that Algolia is a search engine and hence, will not provide you all the features of an RDBMS such as a JOIN that you would need in your case.
If I misunderstood your issue, could you provide us more details and your application ID in an email addressed to support#algolia.com, so that it would be easier to discuss about your specific use-case.
In my situation I've a bunch of nodes that represent the users
and they have relation to books they read.
This user have a property that says where they are from, and I added them to an index, based on their country.
So I would like to search in the index for users from one country, and list the books that people from there read more, some sorting by grouping.
could any one give me a help how to do this?
I'm having some trouble getting users from the index, and doing the query
Couple of assumptions based on your descriptions:
users have a country property, it contains e.g. France as value
you have a index called users and you store the user node's country property there
relationship type to connect users and books is READ
book nodes have a title property
Based on these assumptions the cypher query would look like:
start user=node:users(country='France')
match user-[:READ]->book
return book.title, count(*) as rank
order by rank desc
limit 20
side note: best approach to ask this kind of questions is to create a sample graph on http://console.neo4j.org and share your setup on SO.
I would like to show information on my website based on user's geography. In my current design would not want the user to enter their location/zip code.
Using IP I can find user's location but how do i leverage this information to show relevant events/information from surrounding cities/town.
Thanks
Based on IPs, you only have a certain accuracy with showing location. You should have a option that lets them enter their city/state or zip code.
Once you have long/lat, you just need to run a query to find records in your database a specific distance from that long/lat.
PHP/MySQL: Select locations close to a given location from DB
http://www.ipinfodb.com/ip_location_api.php
this will send you an xml response with the pertinent information
Lets say you can get their City from the IP address. You would need a database of cities with ID's that would pertain to other database entries. Like:
database table cities database table restaurants
--------------------- --------------------------
ID City ID city_id name
1 Los Angelos 1 1 Big Al's
Then you could search for restaurants that have the city_id of the city you got from their IP.
There are so many different approaches to relational databases. This is just one small example.
