Dynamic Y Axis Using Parameter

[davidbernstein]

Hello,

I'd like to create a dashboard containing a bar chart with a user-selected y-axis. I've created a parameter with a slicer on the page that allows user-selection of the variable. I have that parameter listed in the y axis section for the bar chart, but my chart appears blank. It feels like there is a step missing. The graph does show a result when I put the parameter in the x-axis and my intended x-axis value in the y-axis, but this of course is not the data I want to display.

I am hoping to have the user select from the options below, and the graph to return this data disaggregated by two columns: local vs. international. 

Parameter slicer displayed on the page: 

Blank graph with x-axis and y-axis selected.

Any guidance is very much appreciated, thank you.

The solution is actually pretty simple, for my knowledge y-axis always uses aggregated values so u just need to create parameter with aggregated measures instead of just table columns.

@davidbernstein , If you have created this on the column, this needs to be on the x-axis. This on measure , it can be on y-axis(Value axis, assumed column bar)

Thanks very much for your reply. I suppose what I don't understand is why it works when I have my y-axis value selected normally from the 'Data' panel 

but not when that same value is selected in the parameter?

I am having the same issue, did you ever figure out how to do this?
