There are sooo many use cases possible in Omniscope Evo by leveraging the fully integrated data processing + visualisation app capabilities together with the Workflow API and Custom Views.

As an example, in this particular video, we show you how you can set “project parameters” used in workflow configurations and trigger a data execution from a Report.
A way to allow your end users to refresh dashboards and complex workflows simply by tweaking some preconfigured params.

Enjoy
Feedback is always welcomed

How to Edit data and Execute Workflow from Report

We’ve recently developed the Data Table block and added editing capabilities in the Table View.
Please follow KB article here https://help.visokio.com/support/solutions/articles/42000077480-data-table-block-edit-the-data-in-workflow-or-report

Editing + Workflow Execution

Attached here you’ll find a IOZ file to import the project locally to play with 2 interesting features:

1. Edit data from a Report using the “Editable Table” view. When connected to a Text Input or Data Table block the view allows you to perform data edits as if it was a simple spreadsheet app.
2. Execute specific blocks of a Workflow through a Custom view in the Report app which uses the Workflow REST API

A simple custom view to control Workflow Execution from the Report has been added to our GitHub repo, you’ll find it in your Omniscope Evo by clicking on the Add View menu (alt+A) -> and selecting or typing “Workflow Execution”

A video which describes the project is available here. Enjoy.

How to Show dynamic web content in a dashboard

A typical use case when building an interactive dashboard is to embed external web content.
Imagine you have a dataset which contains links to web pages, and you want to show the content of the web page on your dashboard upon selecting or filtering the data in your dataset.

Considering the context of a web based report, the only chance to embed a web page is by using a .
To achieve that we have developed a simple Custom view, (code available on our GitHub repo https://github.com/visokio/omniscope-custom-views/tree/master/web ) which you can install on any Omniscope Evo versions directly from the “Add View” menu.

The view navigates to a URL link according to the current selection / filter state. If multiple records with multiple URLs are selected the view won’t show any content. You can play with the URL setting in the view options to control this behaviour (e.g. by changing which function to apply on the field), by default a “singleton” function is used on a text field.
N.B. some pages might not load when loading content in a iframe is not permitted by their server.

Here is how it looks, select a Url in the report below and try it yourself.
P.S. Pardon the matryoshka effect of embedding an Evo report in a web page, which contains a web page with a Evo report, which contains a web page…
