Hello everybody
I am very new with lavastorm, so sorry if I ask a previously asked question.

I want to make interactive re-usable graph. I want when it runs the graph, asks for some parameter values. is this possible if yes how?

another issue is I want to push a dropdown list with existing data? for example a list of account codes so that analyst will select from that list?

Thank you for your help

You can't quite get it to specifically ask for parameter values, but you can create run arguments (Graph Menu / Edit Graph Parameters / Parameter Declaration, and the graph won't run without values where needed. You can document those there as well, after you create them (Edit Usage Documentation), if the user is going to populate them inside of BRE, before they run the graph. If you want to make it a dropdown with choices, you would choose the type to be "Choice", where it currently defaults to "string". You can then click the "Edit Choices" button to enter (one per line) the values that will be available for the drop-down.

Cheers
