Configuring Mongoose widgets in OS Portal

This outlines the steps for configuring Mongoose widgets in OS Portal.

  1. With the widget open in OS Portal, navigate to More > Configure...
  2. In the Settings dialog, specify this information:
    Title
    The widget title.
    Note:  The title field is filled in automatically, or you can specify a custom title based on your requirements.
    Configuration
    Specify the Mongoose configuration you want to connect with.
    Forms
    Select in the drop-down list, or manually enter the name of the form you want to use as widget.
    Initial Command
    Specify the initial action for the form when it is loaded. Select from Filter in Place or Refresh.
    Params
    Specify parameters you want to use with the form.
  3. Optionally, click the Advance Configuration button to open the Advance Settings dialog, and specify this information:
    Sub Title
    Optionally, specify a subtitle for the form or widget.
    Message type
    Specify the message type. This field supports multiple values, separated by a comma.
    Note: If left blank, no message type will be assigned, and the widget will not listen to any messages. The message type depends on how the sender widget is developed, typically a sender widget sends inforWidgetContext as the initial message type on the workspace.
    Dialog Reference
    Specify the dialog reference for the form/widget.
    Auto Close Dialog
    Click the slider to enable or disable automatic closing of dialogs.
    Note:  This option is shown if a value is provided in the Dialog Reference field.
    Borderless
    Click the slider to display the widget with or without borders.
    Note:  This setting only affects the widget and not the Mongoose forms.
  4. Click OK.
  5. Click Save.
