What is a Widget?

Kayleigh Gaddor
  • Updated

 

After you’ve ingested your data, you can create workspaces populated with a variety of widgets to visualize your data. Widgets provide information at a glance in the form of charts, graphs, word clouds, or other visualizations. You can share and export these widgets with your teammates and stakeholders. No coding is required – all widgets can be created in our widget editor’s point and click interface. Your widgets are completely customizable -  add text or images, tweak the colors or size, and more. Filters can also be applied directly at the widget level.

 

What visualization options are available?

There are 25 data visualizations available for any given widget.  To create a widget, you must select one or more data fields. The widget editor will automatically update to display the visualization options available based on your selections.  Some visualizations are only used for specific kinds of data. In the widget editor, you can hover over each icon for more details about that option.
