Quickly Add Unique Identifier to Blox Action Buttons Without Modifying Blox Template
A customer recently had the unusual request for a method to select and distinguish, via a CSS selector used within a custom Javascript action, for a specific Blox buttons in a existing Blox widget that contained multiple identical buttons, identical in inner text and all other parameters, without adding any new lines to the Blox template to add unique identifiers.Migrating Blox Custom Actions
When relocating Sisense resources from one server to another, the Sisense Rest API is a possible method for transferring Sisense components and objects like dashboards, users, groups, and datasources. Similarly, Blox Custom Actions can be migrated through Sisense Rest API endpoints.Sync Blox Input Element with Current Filter State
When creating a Blox widget altering a filter within a dashboard or widget, it is sometimes advantageous to modify the default behavior, that upon activating a Blox action , the Blox widget input or inputs retain the recently entered values instead of reverting to the default Blox inputs set in the Blox template. Additionally, when a user has the permission to directly modify the relevant filter, bypassing Blox widget actions, and subsequently makes changes to the filter that the Blox widget is designed to manipulate, the default Blox input values may no longer match with the current state of the filter.
