Sisense Fusion Widgets

Sisense Fusion widgets are charts from dashboard widgets that already exist in your Sisense instance. You can reuse the charts you already have and customize them using Compose SDK.

You display charts from your existing Sisense instance using the <WidgetById /> component in React/Vue projects or WidgetByIdComponent in Angular projects.

Note that you can also get the data from a dashboard widget and use it in a Compose SDK chart using the useExecuteQueryByWidgetId() hook in React/Vue projects or the executeQueryByWidgetId() query service method in Angular projects.

WidgetById Properties

Many of the properties of dashboard widget component’s properties are the same as the properties for other Compose SDK charts. To learn more about those properties, see Compose SDK charts.

There are also some properties which are specific to WidgetById components.

dashboardOid and widgetOid

In addition to any other chart properties you want to use with a WidgetById, you need to specify the dashboardOid and widgetOid, which identify which widget from your Sisense instance is displayed in the WidgetById.

You can get the dashboardOid and widgetOid from the widget’s embed code in Sisense instance or using the Sisense REST API. You can also use the the useGetDashboardModel and useGetDashboardModels hooks in React/Vue or the DashboardService functions with the same names in Angular, to get dashboardOid and widgetOid values for a dashboard and its widgets.

For example, the following code snippets get a chart or charts from a Sisense dashboard:

React

Hardcoded dashboard and widget IDs

Retrieve widget IDs using hook

Angular

// Hardcoded dashboard and widget IDs
// Component behavior in .component.ts

chart = {
  dashboardOid: '65536353a90176002a68e5aa',
  widgetOid: '6553637ea90176002a68e5ac',
};

<!--Hardcoded dashboard and widget IDs-->
<!--Component HTML template in .component.html-->

<csdk-dashboard-widget [dashboardOid]="chart.dashboardOid" [widgetOid]="chart.widgetOid" />

Widget Properties

Since the WidgetById component includes the widget wrapper over a chart, it has properties for customizing the widget, including:

• title - Widget title
• description - Widget description
• styleOptions - Configuration options that define the style of the widget

Additional Properties

In addition to the standard chart properties, widget properties, and properties to identify which widget to display, WidgetById also has properties that allow you to define the interplay between the widget as it is set up in your Sisense instance and customizations you apply in code.

These properties include:

• includeDashboardFilters - Whether to include dashboard filters and highlights that apply to the original widget in your Sisense instance
• filtersMergeStrategy - How to reconcile dashboard filters and highlights that apply to the original widget in your Sisense instance and filters and highlights set in code
