Dashboard - Queue Max Content displayed in the Table Chart

Greetings!

I would like to produce a Table Chart that shows me in a column the Max Content of a Queue so that I can see if the maximum limit of carts has been exceeded in a given queue.

For example, I have a Queue "Prazni vozički" and its Max content is 32. What should I write in the Content Collector - Value so that the Content Table displays 32 (and as well for the rest of the queues)?

Please see the attached picture.

Thank you and best regards!

Aljoša

The maximum content can be read in two ways; as a variable and as a property.

.getVariable() looks for a node in the variables attribute node of the object with the given name and returns its value.

.getProperty() instead takes the names as they appear in the property table as parameters and returns their value.

For anything that is available as a property, the second way should be used.

object.getVariable("maxcontent");

object.getProperty("MaxContent");

Thank you Felix for the quick reply! If I try and enter the second way I get some Flexscript errors. What should I edit in the ToolBox - Statistics Collector - Content 1 Collector - Columns - Željeno - Value?

Thank you!

"object" was just meant as a placeholder for the reference to the queue, since I didn't know how exactly your Statistics Collector was set up to provide this reference.

It should be replaced with "data.rowValue".
