How can I have a dynamic counter in a visio?

Hello

Suppose I want to have in a view a counter of the "views" (representing "sites", for example) in a top level Visio view.

What is the best way of achieving this?

Thank you.

Best regards

Bruno Sousa

Hi Bruno. How are views representing sites identified? Are they sub views of another view?

Bruno Sousa [DevOps Member] commented 13th April 2021

Hello Sebastiaan

Yes, they are subviews.

Thank you.

Best regards

Is it possible to have this counter also “filtered” by alarm severity?

Meaning: X numberof Sites in Major Severity, Y numberof Sites in Minor Severity, etc.

Thank you.

Best regards
Bruno Sousa

Hi Bruno,

If I'm understanding your use-case correctly then this can be done by using the Dashboards app and the Generic Query Interface. As Miguel mentioned it is possible to fetch views within the query interface, next to that it is also possible to fetch view relations. With the view relations data you will receive a row for every relation between a view and its direct subview/element/service/redundancy group. There is also an option available (recursive) which let you fetch not only the direct relations but also the indirect relations. By using this datasource in combination with some joins we are able to create a visualisation showing the amount of active alarms (elements) per severity within a view.

I've added an image of the query I used to visualize the amount of active alarms for a certain view below. Some explenation:

  1. First we fetch all view relations in the DMS, with the recursive option enabled.
  2. Then we filter this data to only retrieve rows when the view id is 78. Now we will receive all relationships view with id 78 has to other views/elements/services.
  3. This result can be joined with the elements data, so we will have a row for every element within that view or one of its subviews.
  4. This result can be joined with the active alarms data (Active alarms data is still behind the GenericInterface softlaunch flag, more info here https://community.dataminer.services/documentation/soft-launch-options/)
  5. Finally we can aggregate the result by alarm id and group it by severity. This will give us a count of active alarms per severity for a certain view.
