Analytic Suite Widget

The Analytic Suite widget enables users to display the distinct data analysis views available within the Analyze functionality of Qrvey Composer. This includes Summaries, Tables, Metric Views, etc.

Architectural Overview

This article discusses the architecture of the Qrvey platform and how all of our components work together to deliver on the promise of a unified, all-in-one data solution. If you are new to Qrvey, first see Introduction to the Qrvey Platform.

Automation Widget

The Automation widget enables you to embed the Automation functionality into your application.

Column-Level Security

This video provides an in-depth overview of Column-Level Security and how to configure it. It demonstrates how to create a Role in Qrvey Admin Center, how to use the Get Dataset, Update Dataset, and Apply Dataset Changes APIs to enable Column-Level Security for a dataset, and how to include the Role in a JSON Web Token (JWT).

Configuring Time Zone Settings

The Qrvey platform enables end users to display dates and times in their local time zone. The Qrvey platform stores data in UTC/GMT+0 and adjusts the time displayed to the end user based on their preferred settings. The default time zone setting is specified in Qrvey Admin Center, but it can be overridden programmatically. The possible settings are:

Connections

A Connection is a link established between Qrvey and an external data source.

Content Publishing

This video describes how to publish the dashboards that you create in Qrvey Composer so that they are available to end users. It covers both embedded and non-embedded scenarios. Features discussed include Publish, Unpublish, Embed, and Live Preview. This video also describes how to use the Navigation feature in Page Builder, as well as an overview of the appid and pageid parameters.

Creating a Connection Using the Qrvey API

Qrvey Composer supports the configuration of Push API connections from the Connections page within the Dataset UI. This feature provides “creator” users a low-code way to create datasets that are populated from a specified API connection. Configuring a dataset to use a Push API connection is a two-step process. First, a Push API connection type with a sample JSON object structure must be supplied. Second, the dataset must be configured to refer to the Push API connection for the expected metadata schema, and then the API connection details must be configured to perform the data push.

Creating a Dataset Using the Qrvey API

This article describes how to create a dataset from scratch using the Qrvey endpoint, Create Dataset. This endpoint enables you to set the properties of all dataset elements that you want to create. To learn more about how datasets work in Qrvey Composer, see Overview of Datasets.

Creating a Dataset View Using the Qrvey API

A dataset view is a type of reference dataset that points to another dataset as its source. Dataset views allow you to create a customized view of a dataset for users with access to the application where the dataset view resides. Dataset views only belong to a single application; however, the source dataset can belong to a different application. Dataset views are recommended whenever you want to share data amongst users with access to different applications and avoid replicating and copying large datasets.

Dashboard Builder Widget

When embedded in an application, the Dashboard Builder widget enables users to modify existing dashboards or add new dashboards. Dashboards may contain reports, web forms, or other content.

Dashboard View Widget

The Dashboard View widget enables you to embed one or more dashboards or a mashup of several charts, maps, and metrics into your application.

Download Manager Widget

The Download Manager widget enables users to access and manage exported files in a central location. For more information about this feature, see Download Manager.

Embedded Widgets Overview

Developers can seamlessly embed the Qrvey platform’s functionalities (such as web form builders, data visualizations, and more) directly into their frontend applications using a comprehensive suite of customizable “widgets”.

Embedding Web Forms

Qrvey has two different embedding options available if you'd like to display your web form on a website, blog, web or mobile application.

Generating Security Tokens

When using the Qrvey API in production environments, it is strongly suggested to use a secure JSON Web Token (JWT) for authentication. Include the token in the request header when accessing an endpoint. The Qrvey API supports two types of tokens, depending on which set of endpoints you wish to call:

Introduction to End User Personalization

Everything that is created in Qrvey Composer is ultimately for the benefit of an “End User”. In some cases, the Data Analyst persona may be the same as the End User, and in other cases they may be different people. However, in all cases, the permissions and interactions with the content are different between the two personas: Data Analysts create content that End Users interact with.

Introduction to the Qrvey Platform

The Qrvey platform is an all-in-one analytics solution that enables SaaS providers to put cutting-edge analytics into the hands of their users. This article contains essential information required to understand how to work with the Qrvey platform.

Introduction to the Qrvey Software Development Guide

Software Developers embed Qrvey widgets in their host applications and use Qrvey APIs to programmatically interact with the Qrvey platform. This section of the Qrvey Partner Portal provides Software Developers with the information they need to perform these tasks. Articles include:

JWT Widget Integration

This video provides an in-depth overview of how to securely integrate Qrvey widgets using JSON Web Tokens (JWT). JWT enables you to encrypt sensitive data, such as your organization’s API access key, logged-in user’s ID and role, as well as sensitive record-level security filters. This video demonstrates how to securely embed the Page View widget in an application using a JWT token, which includes examples of front-end and back-end code.

Multi-Tenancy Architecture

This video discusses multi-tenancy architecture of the Qrvey platform for SaaS organizations. Includes a demonstration of a parent application that embeds a Qrvey application in a multi-tenant environment. Topics covered include:

Overview of Internationalization

Qrvey platform supports internationalization and localization for end users in a comprehensive manner. Multi-lingual support is offered for both “static” and “dynamic” text, as well as formatting of numbers and dates based on regions and cultures.

Overview of Qrvey API

Qrvey provides a comprehensive set of REST APIs that can be accessed via standard HTTP requests and responses (GET, POST, etc.). You may use the Qrvey API to work with any of the core Qrvey platform features for data collection, automation, and analytics, or when integrating Qrvey into your own applications. For best results programming with Qrvey APIs, you should be familiar with performing the same tasks in the Qrvey Admin Center and/or Qrvey Composer applications.

Overview of Security

This section describes how to configure security to restrict and grant access to the columns and records in the dataset. Articles include:

Posting Data to a Dataset Using the Qrvey API

This article describes how to use the Post Data API to update a Managed Dataset. Managed Datasets store data in Amazon OpenSearch/Elasticsearch service. The Post Data API is provided by the Qrvey Data Router component.

Using Custom Events

Custom events enable Qrvey Software Developers to handle custom scenarios. This article describes several custom events that can be triggered by Qrvey widgets. The host application can be programmed to listen to these events and then perform its own custom tasks. The Dashboard Builder and Dashboard View widgets support the following custom events:

Using Custom Tokens

The Bullet chart and Dial chart support the use of custom tokens to set threshold values. Custom tokens are based on individualized criteria and are set dynamically each time the widget is rendered.

Web Form - End User

When embedded in an application, the Web Form - End User widget enables end users to enter data in a designed Web Form.

Web Form Design Widget
