Question

Bind data to a widget at runtime

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to build a "dashboard creator" with Thingworx. In particular I have to bind data to widget at runtime.

I followed the guide Customizable and Responsive UI 

https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/customizable-responsive-ui/en/resources/guides/c...  which I found very useful, in this guide the widgets change their data depending on the element of the list that is selected.

My question is:

Is it possible to associate the data, just like in this guide, by selecting the thing for the binding from a list, but keeping the selection for each widget and not changing the binding of the entire dashboard? What I would like to achieve is, for example, the association 'thing of the list' and widget by dragging.

Can anyone give me a suggestion on how to do this thing?

 

Thank you,

Giorgia

Hi @GM_9528891.

 

Can you clarify that you're building a dashboard in ThingWorx or are you referring to a different type of custom dashboard?  Can you provide some screenshots to show what you've built so far and where you're trying to make the change?

 

Regards.
