Hello @sumarani,

Thank you for your question.

BloX widgets are JSON objects that render HTML and CSS, so you should be able to use HTML to display that inside your Blox widget. https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/overview-sisense-labs.htm

I hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Have a great day!

@sumarani Really cool use of Blox in your screenshot! One option would be to create a field in your data model called TodaysDate using the Now() function. Then reference that in your Blox widget. As long as your cube refreshes at least once a day this should work.
