Widgets enable you to define visualizations for indicator scores.
Widgets are shown on dashboards.
A Performance Analytics
widget ties an indicator to a visualization, such as a trend line, a set of columns, or a pie
chart. Within the widget, you can filter or group indicator scores by breakdowns. You can also
apply time series functions, such as 7-day sums, to the scores.
To create or edit a
Performance Analytics
widget, the user must have the pa_admin or pa_power_user role. These roles are also required
to add widgets to a dashboard. However, any user can view a widget that has been added to a
dashboard.
Note: If a user is prevented from viewing a visualization, such as in cases of
wrong configuration settings, not allowed access, or lack of data, a message specific to the
error prompts the user to contact the administrator.
If the dashboard is so configured, you can select breakdown elements on the dashboard that
apply to all the widgets on the dashboard. If you click a score in a widget on a dashboard,
you open the
Analytics Hub
focused on that indicator.
Note: Time series aggregations are validated on the Analytics
Hub but not in widgets. Therefore, you might navigate from a working widget to the
Analytics Hub and get a warning that the indicator has an invalid aggregation.
