Introduction:

Use this sample application as a quick and simple tutorial on sisense JS. It addresses a common use case for allowing a user to assemble a dashboard from a list of available widgets.

Note: This is not production-grade and should only be used for quick and easy learning.

Instructions:

#1 Download the HTML and JSFile. 

#2 Edit the HTML file in notepad and replace all instance of jay.sisense.com with your sisense host e.g. localhost:8081

#3 Place the files in the following folder

C:\Program Files\Sisense\app\resources - vs 7.2.x

C:\Program Files\Sisense\PrismWeb\Resources - vs 7.1.x and earlier

Note: This file can also be executed from your web application.

#4 Make sure that you are logged into the Sisense application or have SSO enabled.

#5 Invoke the file in the following format

http://<host>/resources/dash_builder.html?dash=<dashboard ID>

e.g. 

http://jay.sisense.com/Resources/dash_builder.html?dash=5a66642a6e74366b8c8a00ae

#6 The list of widgets (make sure you add Titles to all of them) shows up in the selection list. Choose your widget and then select [+] to add or [-] to remove.

Note:  There is no persistence, built in to save the dashboard for each user.
