This article explains how to automatically switch between dashboards every predetermined amount of time. This might come useful, when you have multiple dashboards that you want to be presented in a cycle on a monitor to reflect updated data\records. Take a look at the video example below:
Please follow the instructions below to set up automatic rotation between dashboards:
- Create a dedicated user (Consumer) that will be used for presenting the dashboards.
- Republish all the relevant dashboards to the consumer user
- Edit script for every dashboard and add the following script:
Change the variables d, t and u:
d - the url of next dashboard in the queue
t - the amount of time that the current dashboard will be displayed (in milliseconds)
u - the user that is used with the auto cycle
Javascript
dashboard.on('refreshend', function(se, ev) {
var d = 'http://localhost:8081/app/main#/dashboards/5558943e17c636a410000009'; /* URL for next dashboard to be loaded */
var t = 3000 /* Milliseceonds until switching to the next dashboard */
var u = '[email protected]' /* The designated user for the auto cycle */
if (prism.user.userName == u) {
setTimeout(function() {
window.top.location = d;
}, t)
}
})
- Login to Sisense with the designated user and open one of the dashboards to check the change is working.
