Example of Dashboard report: Shadows on resource

Last modified 21 Feb 2022 16:23 +01:00

Please see Dashboard configuration for basic information about configuration variables.

Usecase

Administrator needs display all shadows on resource with actual state.

Configuration

As first we need configure object collection for shadows of concrete resource and kind.

Object collection

<objectCollection oid="72b1f98e-f587-4b9f-b92b-72e251dbb244">
    <name>Account shadow R1</name>
    <type>ShadowType</type>
    <filter>
        <and>
            <ref>
                <path>resourceRef</path>
                <value oid="---RESOURCE_OID---"/>
            </ref>
            <equal>
                <path>kind</path>
                <value>account</value>
            </equal>
        </and>
    </filter>
</objectCollection>

Please replace_ '---RESOURCE_OID---_' with oid of your resource.

When we have object collection, then import Dashboard object with widget for our object collection.

Dashboard

<dashboard oid="72b1f98e-f587-4b9f-b92b-72e251da1234">
    <name>shadow-dashboard</name>
    <display>
        <label>Shadow dashboard</label>
    </display>
    <widget>
        <identifier>shadow</identifier>
        <display>
            <label>Resource R1; ACCOUNT</label>
            <color>#00a65a</color>
            <icon>
                <cssClass>fa fa-user</cssClass>
            </icon>
        </display>
        <data>
            <sourceType>objectCollection</sourceType>
            <collection>
                <collectionRef oid="72b1f98e-f587-4b9f-b92b-72e251dbb244" type="ObjectCollectionType"/>
            </collection>
        </data>
        <presentation>
            <dataField>
                <fieldType>value</fieldType>
                <expression>
                    <proportional>
                        <style>value-only</style>
                    </proportional>
                </expression>
            </dataField>
            <dataField>
                <fieldType>unit</fieldType>
                <expression>
                    <value>shadows</value>
                </expression>
            </dataField>
            <view>
                <column>
                    <name>nameColumn</name>
                    <path>name</path>
                    <display>
                        <label>Name</label>
                    </display>
                </column>
                <column>
                    <name>kindColumn</name>
                    <path>intent</path>
                    <display>
                        <label>Kind</label>
                    </display>
                    <previousColumn>nameColumn</previousColumn>
                </column>
                <column>
                    <name>intentColumn</name>
                    <path>kind</path>
                    <display>
                        <label>Intent</label>
                    </display>
                    <previousColumn>kindColumn</previousColumn>
                </column>
                <column>
                    <name>synchronizationColumn</name>
                    <path>synchronizationSituation</path>
                    <display>
                        <label>Synchronization</label>
                    </display>
                    <previousColumn>intentColumn</previousColumn>
                </column>
            </view>
        </presentation>
    </widget>
</dashboard>

After successful import of dashboard object and reload of page you can see dashboard in menu Dashboards > Shadow dashboard.

We want report with table of shadow, so we import dashboard report.

Report

<report>
    <name>Shadow dashboard report</name>
    <reportEngine>dashboard</reportEngine>
    <dashboard>
        <dashboardRef oid="72b1f98e-f587-4b9f-b92b-72e251da1234" type="DashboardType"/>
    </dashboard>
</report>

Now we can run report in report menu, show task, and download report. Every report from dashboard is in HTML format.
