This section guides you through creating a basic home screen dashboard. It is more advanced than the InsightView dashboard example as it includes creating your own widgets and linking them so that a selection in one widget updates the data in another widget.

There are three main steps to create a home screen dashboard. These are very similar to the steps for creating an InsightView dashboard:

  1. Create a Web API, if required.

    As with the dashboards example, instead of creating a new Web API, we will use the Web API provided for connecting to our local SDx system. For more details on this Web API, see Create a Web API to connect to your local SDx system.

  2. Create the home screen dashboard and make it available to selected users. For our example, we want to make it available to document controllers.

  3. Configure the home screen widgets. The widgets you will configure are:

    • A To Do List widget showing a summary of your To Do List.

    • A widget showing all tags in the system.

    • A widget showing any ongoing change requests related to a selected tag.

    • A widget showing the details of a selected tag.

    • A widget to show the asset details for a selected tag

Once you have created your home screen you can view it as described in View your home screen.
