    Hello and thank you in advance for any help provided. Noob here! Please know that I would like to be pointed in the right direction not for anyone to do this for me, I would like to learn how to do it on my own but I know I need some help getting started.

    Does anyone have a script to access datalink?

    I am trying to create line graph with values from an online Datalinq source.

    My idea is to access Datalinq, iterate over specific values then transfer those values to a text object that drives an APITexture to create the graph.

    If anyone can provide a script so that I can learn from it if it had some comments to help me understand would be even better.

    Again, thank you

    <x-zendesk-user data-user-name="Simon Redmile">372651267231</x-zendesk-user> Thank you for your response and the sample scene.

    What I am looking for is a way to automate the graph creation by using a script that pull the necessary data from a Datalinq source.

    In the Datalinq server I set my source

    In the scene, I create a script that reads/parses information from the Datalinq and populates a text object that drives the creation of a line graph

    In the control room the producer/director do not have to do anything other than play the graphic, everything happens automatically.

    Again Thank you.

    In that one I sent you it reads text entry points. Can you not just link the textbox to a datalinq source instead of being manual entry?
