Data

How to use data (examples)

Data traffic is configured (drag and drop) in the data hub using data flow nodes (triggers, import, export, functions and conditions. Every data flow starts with a trigger based on a time schedule or an event.

Hereafter a summary of data flow examples how to use data from (external) sources in the applications. In the summary the main toolbox nodes are mentioned.

  • Import data directly from external sources to add to form fields by using:

    • Import from Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Export to Platform - Export to forms

    • Watch an example Case 1 in data flow steps here

  • Collect input data directly from form fields to export to external sources by using:

    • Import from Platform - Import from Forms

    • Export to Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Watch an example Case 2 in data flow steps here

  • Import data from external sources and create lists and tree structures by using:

    • Import from Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Create dataclips

    • Create lists, trees from dataclips

  • Import data form external sources and connect them to dashboard controls for visualizing data by using:

    • Import from Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Create dataclip

    • Export to dataclip

    • Mapping dataclips to dashboard controls (labels, grids, graphs, gauges etc.)

  • Collect input data directly from form fields for use in an application built on the platform by using:

    • Import from Platform - Import from Forms

    • Export to Dataclips

    • Mapping dataclips to form fields (linked fields)

    • Mapping dataclips to dashboard controls (labels, grids, graphs, gauges etc.)

  • Collect input data directly from the SQL database for use in an application built on the platform by using:

    • SQL connections

    • SQL dataclips

  • Modify data from internal or external sources by using:

    • Import from Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Add Functions (f.e. Queries) and/or Conditions

    • Export to Databases - ERP - Files - Industrial & IoT - Platform - Specials - Web (f.e. API)

    • Create dataclip

    • Export to dataclip

    • Mapping dataclips to form fields (linked fields)

    • Mapping dataclips to dashboard controls (labels, grids, graphs, gauges etc.)

  • Execute data flows: More information to come

  • Filter data on forms fields : More information to come

  • Filter data on dashboard controls : More information to come

  • Filter data by variables (users): More information to come

  • Set and pass parameters - fixed filters on dashboard controls by navigation: More information to come
