Add/Edit Widget pane
How to Get There

What it Does
Use this pane to define the Widget you would like to add to the Dashboard.
Widgets are visual representations of data extracted from an Insite Product Connection.
Widgets are added to a dashboard layout, which can be customized to provide a unique, at-a-glance, real-time view of your business.
The options available here depend on the type of data selected.
To learn about adding or editing widgets, see Working with Widgets.
Options
Data Source
Select Existing Data Source • Add a New Data Source
Use the Select Existing Data Source drop-down list to select an existing Data Source/Widget to modify. Data Source refers to Product Connections added to Insite.
Use the Add a New Data Source list to identify the Product Connection and Product whose data you would like to display on the Dashboard. Saved Widgets appear in this list, identified by the Data Source, Product, and Asset of the Widget, for this Dashboard.
Systems configured as Product Connections in Insite appear in the Add a New Data Source list. See Adding a New Product Connection in the Inside help for more details.
See Data Sources.
Asset
Assets are the business services, processes, and applications that have been configured, for which you can generate a visual representation within Insite via a widget.
Once a Data Source has been selected, you can then select the asset that the widget will represent. Only the assets from the selected Data Source are available. If the required asset is not displayed, it must first be created in the Data Source before it is available within Insite.
Assets are initially displayed at their highest level of configuration. Click Expand to drill-down into the asset. The drill-down process is available for every asset level against which the
Expand icon is displayed.
See Assets.
Searching For Assets
If the Data Source for which you are creating the widget contains a large number of assets, it may be quicker to use the Search facility to find a starting point, rather than expanding multiple asset entries to locate the one that you require.
In the Search assets field at the top of the Assets section, type the name of the asset you want to locate and press Enter. The text is not case-sensitive. Any Assets that match the entered text are now displayed and can be selected or expanded as required.
