Request for API to Programmatically Retrieve Widget-Level Error Responses in Sisense Dashboards
We are currently conducting automated tests on Sisense dashboards to ensure data reliability and visualization integrity. To detect failures, we’ve been using HTML tags to inspect widget responses. However, this approach has limitations especially with indicator widgets that use the <canvas> tag, which restricts DOM-level access and makes it difficult to capture error states. We’ve also explored using the POST /datasources/{cubeName}/jaql API to fetch data, but the payload is large and complex, making it challenging to parse programmatically for error detection. Given these constraints, we’re looking for an API or method that allows us to programmatically retrieve widget-level error responses or statuses from the dashboard. This would significantly improve the reliability and coverage of our automated testing framework Feature Request: Introduce an API or system-level mechanism to: Detect and retrieve widget-level error states Identify query execution failures tied to specific widgets Support automated testing and validation workflowsPDF Download Options
Hi there, Sisense should enhance the PDF export functionality by allowing users to select specific widgets to include when downloading a dashboard. Additionally, a 'fit to page' option should be provided to automatically resize widgets according to the paper size, while preserving layout integrity and readability. We strongly recommend including these features in a future release, as many of our clients are experiencing difficulties with the current limitations. At present, we are relying on alternative solutions that are both complex and time-consuming to manage. Thank You!
Line Graph Filtering Improvements
Currently line graphs allow for selections to be made on the graph which then propagate to the dashboard filters. This is showcased in this link: https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/making-selections-in-a-widget.htm It would be nice for a widget to have the option for the selection to be either for the dashboard filter or that specific widget's filters. For example if I had a single widget that used a specific column of a table as that widget's filter then I want to select and add it there instead of having it appear as a new dashboard filter. That way a new filter won't appear as if it affects the whole dashboard when it only affects a singular widget.Widget Text and Column formatting Megathread
Hello Everyone! There are a lot of Ideas around improving the ability to format the text in Widgets. We appreciate all the feedback! In order to make it easer for people to find and contribute to the discussion, I am combining them into this thread. Everyone, what are the customizations that you would like to see in the GUI rather than using a script? One of the ways we prioritize development efforts is by community interest. I encourage everyone to vote and comment on this suggestion and its comments. The more engagement a request receives, the higher the likelihood of it being considered for implementation. Thank you for participating, and we are excited to work with you to make a better Sisense! Have a great day!
Allow Tolerations and Annotations To be Set on Pods Deployed By Sisense
For the pods that sisense deploys into the kubernets cluster (bld and qry pods) being able to customize these specs would be helpful to get true node isolation and for log shipping. Currently we can set the Limits and Requests for these pods. It would be nice if there were a configuration setting that would allow us to add a toleration to the spec so our cluster can use taints. Also adding custom annotations to these pods would allow us to ship the logs to our log management system giving us greater insight and monitoring.
Enhance table widget page controls
The page controls to change the pages are currently within the widget and its functionality is limited: Thus, if the number of rows to be displayed are increased to 50 or so, the widget window would get expanded and user will have to scroll to the bottom of the dashboard to see the page controls or change the widget page. This can be avoided by placing the page controls at the bottom of the widget window and not limiting it to the size of rows. So the widget window size stays fixed and the user can scroll through the data within the table widget. This also helps view the dashboard in the page without having the need to scroll down at the bottom of the dashboard. Additionally, also allow the viewer to increase the number of rows to be viewed in the widget. Example, a user should be able to increase the number of rows for a table widget to fixed numbers as 50 or 100.Custom error pages
Hello we would be pleased to see possibility to upload custom error pages in Sisense. 403, 404, 500. Also when you will end on not existing page e.g. /app/de. It would be perfect if such pages could also be translatable. It could be set as Look and Feel option or wherever you like.
Export "Look and Feel" Templates
Hi all, Can there please be a way to export and import the "Look and Feel" themes in Sisense? At the moment, I've got a dev and prod instances for Sisense and 50+ clients who we aim to have custom themes based on their company branding and colour schemes. After making and testing one out in Dev, I'd love to be able to just copy a theme over from Dev to Prod when promoting a dashboard up instead of the current process of going through each individual settings and copying each colour one by one. Kind regards, Shams
Multi-Axis Chart
It is currently possible to add a second axis, but we would like to expand this capability to have more axes on a chart or line chart with Compose SDK. Data visualizations are becoming more advanced and to match our competitors, we would like to have this capability to build a chart where users can select and display multiple measures on one chart. For our future dashboard, we plan to have a longer list of KPI measures that users can select from to ensure a customizable and interactive experience.Sort Data by Predicate Function to Enable Sorting by Another Column
It looks like the sorting on compose SDK charts is very limited. You cannot pass a predicate (callback function) to define your own sorting, you can only specify ascending or descending. So, if that's the case, anytime we need to be able to sort a column by another column, we'll have to use the queryService and sort it ourselves.
