Hi, this is an amazing tutorial, but can you let me know how you found the X and Y values for all the records? Is that generated? If yes then how?

[DamonChow-cefb]

Hi this is great thanks so much for sharing! One is issue i've faced is when i'm adding version of Node department, i get duplication of node department across all my points, in the data is node department meant to be the department of the Name field? and in for each of the two same edge ID would node department be different? e.g. so in the original data everything is the same for the same edge ID except name and node department columns?

Hi!

Want to ask for highlighting labels that you did on 3:53, I tried to do the exact same steps but when it gets to 4:22, only the connected nodes appear on my dashboard without the lines to show the connection. Do you know how to solve this issue?

Thank you, this is a very helpful tutorial!

[musomuzo]

how did you get all of the lines and nodes to highlight and not just the single line?

[ethanvirtudazo]

Can you show us what the Data Source looks like so we can understand what the data the fields contain? Specifically, I want to know what 'c Index' contains.

[Sinam-Tedhe-Medhe]

can you please provide similar data so that we can practice. Only 2 to 3 rows in each column?

[ChiKettle]

Really nice. The real magic is when you drop index onto the detail card & the network materialises. How is the network connectivity encoded in the data?

I can't seems to open the step-by-step written instructions (404 Not Found). Can you please reupload ? thank you

[khacvynguyen]

What value does the c-index attribute contain?

[josephzongolowicz]

I don't understand the purpose of the Name field. The example in the readme just looks like you duplicate each row and have a name for each
