Repeater
Beta Feature
Repeater is currently a beta feature and is still under active development. Do not use beta features in your production environment.
Repeaters allow users to create customizable tables by specifying an attribute to generate rows and selecting various metrics, facts, or attributes for columns. Each cell in a repeater can display data as numbers, bar charts, or line charts, and includes support for rich text content such as images and links.
Line and Bar Charts
In addition to numerical data presentation, repeaters can visually represent data using line or bar charts.
Steps:
To set up, drag the desired attribute into the Rows bucket, a fact or metric into the Columns bucket, and an attribute or date object into the View by bucket for chart visuals.
For the selected metric or fact in the Columns bucket, use the Display as toggle to switch between numerical, line chart, and bar chart views.
Hyperlinks
Repeaters can also integrate hyperlinks as clickable elements within the table, allowing for custom link text.
Steps:
In the logical data model, assign an attribute label with the type Hyperlink to the attribute containing URL data.
Within the Display as settings, choose the hyperlink label.
The URLs are now converted to hyperlinks.
Optionally, custom text can be assigned to these hyperlinks for clarity or aesthetic purposes.
Images
Repeaters can images directly from URLs specified within the data.
Steps:
Ensure the attribute that holds the image URLs is labeled as Image in the logical data model.
Select this image label in the Display as setting.
The images are now displayed.
