First Published Dataset

Introduction #

“Published Dataset” is SmartChart’s dataset and chart reuse mechanism. Developed datasets + charts can be packaged as independent units for direct use in different dashboards, enabling “zero-code” level metric reuse, ideal for OEM and multi-tenant scenarios.

Use Cases #

  • Dataset and chart reuse, drag and drop directly into dashboards after development
  • Build metric systems for users, enabling 0-code functionality
  • Ideal for OEM scenarios

Dataset Status Description:

  • Published: Can be referenced as “Published Dataset” in other dashboards, cannot be modified in the target dashboard
  • Offline/Draft: Only visible to developers for development and debugging
  • Names starting with _ are automatically set to lazy-load mode (not queried immediately when opening dashboard)

Create Dataset #

  • In the development menu -> Datasets -> Add -> Save
  • In the dataset list -> Click the E icon -> Enter dataset editor
  • After developing the data, click the dataset editor, save the dataset and click to enter chart development

  • Adjust the chart and save. Datasets created this way default to published status
  • Add more datasets using the same method

Use Published Datasets in Dashboards #

  • Enter the dashboard development interface
  • Click “Add” -> “Published Dataset”, click the corresponding dataset

Screenshot

  • The “Published Dataset” will appear in the dashboard

To make a dataset lazy-load when added, prefix the dataset name with ‘_’
