This topic describes how to configure the Metrics Bar component.
To configure the Metrics Bar component:
-
After adding a
Metrics Bar component to a page, click its
.... button and then click
Preferences.
The Metrics Bar edit view appears.
-
In the
Metrics Bar edit view, select from the
available data sources in the drop-down list, and then click
Update data source to bind your selection to
the component.
-
In the
Analytics Statement field, enter an Analytics
statement (or multiple statements) to return metric values.
-
If desired, check the
Respect data source query state box. When this
box is checked, the
Metrics Bar component is dependent on its data
source query state, which means the metric values should update when the data
source query state changes. When the box is unchecked, it is independent of the
data source query state, so the metric values should remain constant regardless
of the data source query state.
- Click the Test analytics query button to validate the Analytics statement before loading the metrics into the component. You are required to test the Analytics statement before loading the statement into the component. If the Analytics statement is valid, the Load Metrics button is enabled.
- Click Load Metrics.
- Click Return to Full Page to return to the Metrics Bar end-user view.
