I have a requirement where i need to pass today's date to a query variable (in "mm/dd/yyyy" format).
For Eg. I have today's date in cell C1 and another cell say D1 has the formula =Text(C1,"mm/dd/yyyy"). The query variable is mapped to D1. I mapped the values and published the dashboard. It works fine if the date doesn't change.
Consider the date is 02/12/2015 when the dashboard was published.It will work fine until the date is not changed. But problem comes when the date changes. When it changes to 02/13/2015, query variable still takes 02/12/2015, it is not getting updated to 02/12/2015 and still brings the data for that day (02/12/2015) . Even if I open the dashboard after 4 days, it still passes the same date (02/12/2015). Can any one tell me why this happens and What should be done for this issue?
