Hi all,
I’m working with DataMiner Low Code Apps (LCA) and Dashboards, and I’ve run into a limitation I’d like some guidance on.
In my Low Code App, I want to embed a Dashboard, but I only need one specific dashboard page. Currently, embedding a dashboard brings in the entire dashboard, which:
-
Increases load time
-
Includes pages that are not relevant for the app
What I’m ideally looking for is one of the following:
-
A way to embed only a single dashboard page into an LCA page
-
Or, even better, a way to reuse or transfer only the structure/layout of a dashboard page into an LCA page, without embedding the full dashboard
The main goal is to avoid duplicating UI logic while keeping everything in sync.
So far, I don’t see a way to embed a single dashboard page directly.
Manually transferring dashboard pages is possible, so that part is not the issue. The challenge is keeping things aligned without having to load the full dashboard or maintain duplicate UI definitions.
This leads me to consider a workaround:
-
Writing a script or automation that transfers the dashboard page structure (json file) from the LCA to the Dashboard whenever the LCA is updated.
Before implementing this, I’d like to ask:
-
Is embedding only a single dashboard page into an LCA currently possible?
-
What is the recommended or best-practice approach for this use case?
-
Is a one-way sync (LCA → Dashboard) via automation a reasonable solution, or is there a cleaner alternative?
Thanks in advance for any insights or recommendations!
Hi Harun,
I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say 'embedding a dashboard brings in the entire dashboard'. You probably mean that the side-panel with the folder structure is also loaded. To prevent this, you can embed the dashboard with the 'embed=true' query parameter in the web component.
eg: https://{URL.DMAIP.Value}/dashboard/#/db/MYDASHBOARD.dmadb?embed=true
The dashboard

And the result of embedding it in the LCA
