Creating a new Widget

To create a new Widget, you simply need to click on the Builder link at the top of the page and you will be taken to the Build New Widget page.

Once on this page, there are a few configuration options:

1. Select the type of Widget you want to create – Table, Chart or HTML.
2. Select the method – GET or POST. It will usually be GET.
3. Add the URL to your API endpoint (or link to a JSON file)
4. If your API requires authorization, select the type of auth required and add the details.
5. Test the API – click the Test API button to make sure that all settings are correct.
6. If the test is all good, you can then click the Create New Widget button

After successfully creating the Widget, you’ll be taken to the Builder which look something like the below.

Here you can configure the data used within your Widget, and this is slightly different for Charts, Tables & HTML. See the articles below for in-depth instructions:

• Convert JSON API to Chart
