Widget definitions

In the Widget definitions section, you manage both built-in and created widgets. Built-in widgets are part of the standard product and cannot be modified, but they can be copied. Created widgets are defined by users or administrators and can be freely customized, copied, or extended. Widget definitions form the basis for all widgets that later appear on dashboards or in the detail view. Here you specify the schema on which a widget is based, how its data is filtered, and how the widget is displayed.

Overview

The list of widget definitions shows all available widgets. The list view allows you to filter whether all entries, only created widgets, or only built-in widgets are shown.

You can also save your own list views and reuse them as needed.

Actions

The context menu provides the following actions:

• Create new widget

• Add widget copy

• Add copy of selected widget

• Edit

• Delete

• Export data

• Save as new list view

During configuration, the widget preview on the right shows the widget in real time. This allows you to validate filters and layout immediately.

Using the list view

The list-view menu allows you to control how the list of widget definitions is displayed.

Options include:

• Show all entries

• Created widgets

• Built-in widgets

• Custom list views

The list view defines which columns are shown, how the entries are sorted, and how the list of widgets is structured.
