Widgets

Widget promotion is introduced in Universal Controller 7.4.0.0. However, if Follow References = false for a promotion, any widget required by a promoted dashboard must already be available on the target system.

If a dashboard contains a reference to a specific widget by id, the promotion payload will include widget meta data to allow for proper validation and potential remapping of the widget reference on the target system.

The meta data includes:

• Widget id
• Widget name
• Widget type

If a widget by the same id and type exists on the target system, no UUID mapping is required and the promotion can proceed without issue.

If a widget by the same id and type does not exist on the target system, UUID mapping is required before the promotion can proceed.

Using the widget metadata, the Controller will attempt to find a widget on the target system with the same name and same type.

• If a widget is found, the incoming widget id will be remapped to the appropriate target system widget id.
• If a widget is not found, the promotion will fail with the following message: Unable to find mapping on target system for ops_widget reference id widget-id. {meta-data}.
