SharePoint Online chart

I would like to display a graph on the home page of my sharepoint online site. I can add in a quick chart but it does not fit my requirements.
Basically, I have a task logger where i log all incoming tasks, they are assigned a status - closed, completed, in progress, on hold, and pending.
I would like to display this visually on the home page so we can see how many tasks per status.
I think the x axis would the status and the y axis would be the value.
I'm not sure how to achieve this? i've seen multiple examples of coding for this but being inexperienced in coding, i'm not sure how to amend or adapt the codes for my requirements.
If someone could please provide a solution or have any ideas, that would be greatly appreciated.
We can use the solution below from GitHub to achieve it.
Modern Charts
Or we can use modern script editor web part with chart js plugin and REST API to achieve your requirement.
In classic site page, we can use script/content editor web part with custom JavaScript code to achieve it.
If You don't plan to code the solution I would suggest two different then quick chart webpart approaches:
File Viewer webpart - You could create some excel file to store all Your task list there. This file could be stored on some document library. The excel file could have data in one tab and chart in other. Using File viewer You could add this excel file on any SharePoint page. On one Page You could present the tab to change data (tasks), on other the tab that has the chart. I know..a bit of a workaround but this is one of the simplest solutions I thought of without coding :)
Power BI- this tool for sure may will fit any needs as in this tool You may do almost anything. Of Course You need Power BI server for this. You may create any chart/report with this also from data taken directly from SharePoint
Hope this will be of any help to You

Build single dataset from multiple tables in Azure Data Factory

I have an ask which requires me to use views in the query from the data store. The built-in copy utility doesn't seem to like my query with inner joins. I know the query works because I tested it in my local SSIS. How can I build a dataset that joins 2 or more tables in ADF? I tried going to the advanced tab and referencing SqlDataReader with my query, but I can't figure out how to see a preview of the results. Please assist.
Sorry for the late response. Hope you have figured out how to do this.
The authoring UI has been updated and you don't need to use Advanced tab now.
Go to the copy activity source tab, put your query in the query input box, and then press the Preview button, you will see the query results.

Azure Search suggestions setup

I've created an instance of Azure Search and I'm trying to make use of the suggesters functionality but struggling to find any useful information on how to get started (poor and out of date documentation from Microsoft).
I would like to use a suggestion on the name field below.
The issue is that fields require unique names and I'm unable to edit existing fields. I'm a little unsure of how the suggester tab differs from basic.
Does anyone have any advice on how best to add suggesters to my index? I am all for deleting the index and starting again if I've missed something critical.
I'm really sorry you're disappointed by the documentation. We take it very seriously and will make sure to address your feedback. Feel free to make suggestions.
On the screen you provided, you should specify a name for the suggester. Once you do that, checkboxes will show up next to your field names. Using the check boxes you will enable the Suggestions API on selected fields.
Use the name of the suggester as a value for the suggesterName parameter when using the Suggestions API : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn798936.aspx
Please find more details in this article about suggestions in Azure Search. It describes a sample application with code attached.
Hope that helps.

How to remove a file from Sharepoint with SQL

YES i know, that you'll never want to use SQL for changing data in Sharepoint.
I have a lot of files in my Sharepoint record center.
I have one corrupted file that i can't delete.
I tried to delete with a solution, with powershell etc, so my last option is delete is from the database.
It's a test envirioment where i want it to use.
SQL is my last chance.......
Have you tried the SPContentDatabase.Repair method?
You haven't stated what you attempted to do in your solution, Powershell script etc. You might get other suggestions that might be less of a threat to your environment.
All your items live in "AllUserData" table. It is, by the way, documented in MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd358229(v=prot.13).aspx (surprise for me)
However, you will need the site id and list id of your item.

Rad grid custom filtering

How can I activate custom filtering for my radgrid?(I googled but I didn't get any proper response regarding this)
I have a property like AllowCustomSorting but I don't have any property regarding filtering.
Can any one provide the way how to implement custom filtering?
If possbile give me a sample page then I will understand.
Thanks in advance.
All you need to know about filtering:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grid-basic-filtering.html
I usually do my filtering/sorting within my stored procedures as that brings huge speed benefits when working with larger tables.
I'm aware this is a fairly old question now but this link should help you:
Note that it has a sample project at the bottom of the page.
The property you are looking for is AllowFilteringByColumn="True"
This page has a sample using a dropdown and a custom filter.
